The State of Bimbolands message may have you confused right now, so I just want to lay out what proper forum behavior is going to be, one step at a time.  Right now it is the same as it always has been.  I am very much against censorship, on any level so don't worry about that.
  There is limits of course. Following the normal social LAWS of your nation of birth is a good place to start to be a good Bimbolander.

I want to prepare you for one major change in this section that I and the State Ministers will begin doing.  We will be enforcing a policy of:
Posting in Existing Threads. 
This means if there is a topic about shoes, and you want to talk about going shopping for shoes with your friends, and broke a heel and walked home barefoot, Put it into a Thread called Shoe's What are they good for, or Epic Fail, or Founders Inn.   Don't Make a new thread  just for your story about shoes.  Try and find your story a home in the best possible thread for it.  Use your imagination.  Where would it get the most views, comment's and like's.
 I can promise the New Players that if you do this you will make friends on this game and you will love the forum even more. Other players will reply to your comment, instead of watching die because long time players already have an established thread they use.  To make friends, you need to join friends.
  
You can also challenge yourself to come up with New and Exciting political topics for the forum that would have a broad interest to all bimbo's. It always looks great to be the opening poster of those conversations !  I will be giving extra credit for those.  Remember, I now hold Bimbolands purse too and I don't mind using it if a Political themed Thread reaches a sizable page count. 

   Has anyone noticed the Like Button.  USE IT.   It matters in Bimbolands.  It is a feature that will be used very soon.

At this time I do not plan on removing any existing threads.  I may put some of them up to a vote however.  Some of them I feel should really be considered a game.  There is a game section for them, and if they continue to be distracting to the general forum I will place notice on them and put them to a vote if the population thinks a thread is a game or not.  So I suggest if you are playing a game in the General Forum, that you move it to the Games Section as soon as you can.
  I feel it is better to let them die a natural death in the General Section and become part of Bimboland's history.

I also wish to discourage 'Text-speak'. Not ban.  I do ask that text speak not to be used in the title's of new threads, unless needed to convey a point. For example: OMG Taxi drivers stink.  For a thread about bad driver's?  Ehhh  it happens.  Text speak is not understood by many second language players, and we can show some support for them by speaking clearly on the forum.


Questions?  Please ask in this Thread.  Suggestions Too.

I agree with this bit, but sometimes I think it's ok to make a clearer thread for everyone. For example, if there's this one small thread with a name that doesn't really imply it's about a certain topic and was just intended for one person's story, it should be totally alright to create another thread for that topic, which clearly welcomes other people to participate.

So if the existing thread was like:

"my friends are being so annoying... advice plz?"

...I think you shouldn't feel like you're being made to post your story in that thread, if you actually just wanted to make a new one that went a bit like this:

"Toxic friends: I've been thinking loads about this lately since my friends started behaving like total dicks... has anyone else been through a similar situation? I'd love to hear your thoughts and stories - Maybe we could help eachother out?"

While there shouldn't be any strict rules on creating threads as there is on Like A Fashionista, I do think it's a very positive thing to want to create buzzing, lively threads that are going to benefit the whole community. It's good to invite people into a discussion by simply asking them if they can relate or want to share experiences.

Bambi brings up a good point.  I just thought that would be a given.  Remember  we don't necessarily like dead threads to be brought back to life ether.  So if you don't find a thread in 5 or more pages, a refreshed thread would certainly be fair.  Just hopefully not the exactly the same title as an older one, because the new one will be deleted.

The way some topics are bumped is weird. You really gotta be digging deep to resurrect some of these threads.

Is that not censorship of sorts? What if there was say, a Game Of Thrones thread 10 pages back? People might not necessarily continue to speak about it whilst waiting for the next season.

'Game of Thrones Season 2 '  Would be the reasonable way to get around my rule in that case.  It is not censorship to respect the original poster, thread and it's title.  We used to call that 'Thread-Jacking' when someone would steal a dead-threads title from the original opening poster.  If the opening poster returns and uses her thread, and a new one has been made, I would have to remove the newer one if she requested it.  This is not a new concept to forums, and was used on Miss Bimbo as well.
Consider it Bimboland's explained, copyright law.
    The search function for the forum makes it very easy to find established threads that may have the same title/topic.  Just enter in a desired title, and check first.  This will become very important as the population grows and several pages of topics are written in every day.

So what if people might want to go back to the original thread and read/contribute to what's already been said about previous seasons and how that might relate to current happenings? GoT is a good example of this actually.

Also, we're on season 6 now, hun. lol.

It seem that choosing a new thread title could be anything you want, to include all the seasons of the show.  'Game of Thrones Reloaded', was the first thing that popped into my head as I have never seen the show myself that was just an example.  As an opening poster then you would link the first original thread to your own with an explanation of the reason for an updated thread.  The opening posts are read, and the explanation for the new updated thread is usually accepted if the original thread has been inactive or no longer applies to the current situation of the show.  As such there would be no conflict of the threads being the same, even though it is about a single TV Show with many seasons.  The many different seasons, is what does make them different.  It would be a little redundant to have a thread for each season at the present time being season 6, but it would be allowed.  This hold true for future TV shows with multiple seasons, but it wont be as much of an issue as with TV shows with a past history longer than the existence of Bimbolands.  Dr. Who would be a good example. Started in 1963 to present 2016 and all seasons completely different.  I would just make one thread and move along with a single thread into the next season and so forth.

Ok, but how do you plan to police this if it's something you personally don't know anything about, but the people contributing to the threads do? Continuing to use TV as an example, a show like American Horror Story would be an example of a series where each season has a totally different story/characters, but still there's a singular thread for that, since people like to compare which series they liked best and generally just talk about it as a whole, y'know?
