Default [Suggestion] Re: Reason For Graveyarding

This is just a simple suggestion - I'm not sure if it has been made before, probably has IDK... But I think it's an important suggestion. Within my forum communities - I've always valued the concept of keeping everybody in the know - so this is what my "Modification Graveyard" suggestion is all about: transparency and keeping Members in the know.

So... I just visited the following thread: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=220517 ==> 1 post having nothing to do with the closed, graveyarded thread... I've seen rather many posts very similar and it simply gets on my last nerve, seeing ditched threads with no explanation as to what the issue is. It especially drives me nuts when a modification I've actually downloaded and installed on my board has been sent to the graveyard...

Suggest: For each graveyarded thread - Whenever the thread is graveyarded or whatever it's called - the vB.org Staff Member who closed the thread enters into a formfield (at time of closure of course) a brief description of why the thread has been locked, closed, graveyarded, given to the spirit realm, whatever.... That brief description should then show for all registered & licensed Members somewhere within the original post.

I'm sure it's a relatively easy modification to accomplish this suggestion. I think giving a bit of information to us regular folks (read: registered and licensed vBulletin customers who care about the modifications shared in this community) can only go to show that there is a bit of respect on part of the vB.org Staff Members given to us who are interested in knowing why a modification has been swiped away and given no further download priviledge. At bare minimum - some consideration/explanation should be given to those who have downloaded/installed the modification.

Thanks,

Jacquii.
