I know shit post are meant to be tracked and fizzled out of this forum and I can't dictate for the moderators and admins, but for improvement sake and a possible prevention of a repeat of such post, isn't it better for administrators to just lock the post for awhile, rather than delete it immediately?
If it goes to scam post or shit post, then there is no necessary to store or filter them. Because such type of post will never add any value to the forum.


Or isn't it more appropriate for administrators to apply any of the options of which includes to either lock the post for a while and   later, or arrange similar shit posts into a separate board and delete later, so as it acts as a reminder to others and to the creator of such post on the kind of post not to make and present?
No, this proposal has no significant value I think. If such type of post arise, then we should avoid and it's annoying. Rather than it is better to clean the low quality post to avoid the possible scam.

The thread starter should be aware that their post was deleted, even if they do not get a system message to that effect and that should be a deterrent to making such posts. If they do not notice that a whole thread they created can no longer be accessed they will not notice it getting moved to a separate board or locking it for a while.

If others do not see that type of post anywhere on a board, that should be a pointer not to make similar posts.

The problem of most thread starters that create shit post usually doesn’t revisit their thread once they created it. Most of the time the thread was deleted without being notice or they just notice it when they didn’t qualify for the post quota on signature campaign because the thread was deleted without notification.



I partly agree about temporary lock especially on thread that was deleted on gambling board. Some topic there was deleted even though it’s really a gambling related topic and which is more suitable than sports discussion but in general I agree that shit post should be deleted immediately.

Many of reported posts weren't quickly being taking care, if the moderators need to move the post/topic before it's get deleted, there would be many of spam/scam/off thread everywhere because it will be slower than now.

If you think your idea is for awareness, I think people already learn it from experience.

Just like users who're in casino campaign, they will review how many posts they've created especially in gambling board or they will not get paid for not enough post. This make them learn to not posting in that kind thread in order to meet quota campaign or learn what kind of topic that may moved to off topic.

Report is what you can do.

If you see a shit topic, including a OP, you can report it to moderators. The shit topic will be trashed including all posts in that topic. You don't need to report all posts in that topic.

If you see a shit post, report it to moderator, it will be checked and deleted accordingly.

If you report a shit topic to moderators, they will not lock it and let it there for several days before deleting it. It does not take too much time for moderators to assess a thread is shit one and delete it immediately.

Why should shit post be locked ?? once it's identified  and confirmed, it's   should be deleted immediately... besides, unless it's a thread it can't be locked, posts under a thread can't be locked and the thread cannot be locked just  because of a single or multiple shit posts under it  so deleting it is the best way to tackle it and at the same time, some post might just be a mistake (maybe double posting, I've  experienced that too..).
I believe there's always a message for every post deleted (don't know if that still functions though).

The moderators know what they are doing. Anyone who feels that their posts that were deleted is not supposed to be , should created a to dispute them. And who knows maybe the topic may be allowed to be reposted.

I don't think this is necessary. The moderators are already overwhelmed and doing this is a long process. The reminder is the pain of having your post deleted or locked so that you can review and not do what will make your topics locked or deleted.

I think as far as low quality posts and threads is concern, the admin have the best solution for now because the subject of low quality shit posts is  based in n individual a d the message it carries, because while some of those posts are deleted automatically, we still ha e those that the topic get locked but not temporary locked though.

Deleting a topic now have to do with the content of the topic, take for example, the current spam attack by new accounts who constantly keep creating shit topic all with same write up if such a thread isn't deleted automatically it going to create a mess around even it their locked, so the admin are doing their best as far as posts quality measures is concerned in this forum.

You mean shit topics that are worth deleting. It is better the thread is removed once and for all. This will make the forum clean than to make the boards to be full of shit topics.

Those threads are immediately archive in ninjastic.space or in loyce.club. so if its meant to be deleted, then it should be deleted.

There are scenario that threads are just locked instead of deleting it. One is being serve its purpose, like questions asked where answered already and OP forgot to lock it then people keep repeating what had been said.
Spam, malware goes to deletion, off topic goes to off topic board, and the rest get locked.
