Maybe a idea for the forums is allow the person who made a thread be able to close it so know one else can reply if it got out of hand.
Ex:
I create a post on a game I may make, then 30+ people are replying to it, I may want to go and just end the post so I click close thread or something like that, and it makes it so know one else can reply to it, I know the Forum Mods have the power to do this but some times people who made a post may want to end a post because it is getting out of hand.

Well, but like: Free Graphics given here! Cheetoz, he said he is busy now and not making icons, shouldnt he be able to stop the thread because people will probaly still be asking for icons and banners, but if you dont think it is not a good idea its ok.

I don't see this as a good idea at all. Closing threads should be limited to the moderators only. I agree, but I do see how some people could have a use for it. | |
Ok then, if two people think it would not be useful then it must not be, thanks for your thoughts.

No, I can see how it could be useful, but I think the moderators are the best ones to deal with a situation.

Then he can just change the topic line of his post to reflect that, and/or reply to his topic himself saying it.

I can see how it would be useful, but the problem is it'll lead to some really childish posting. I wouldn't say the board would go to hell, but there are enough ways to stop a topic already that there's no way to justify a new one if it's going to have any side effects at all.
