Cross posting in Prison

    A long long time ago I was in prison, and I could only reply to the threads I created... I now see people can reply to other peoples threads in Prison. Almost their own community (awwwwwwww). Is this intentional, or an oversight, after an upgrade?

    Perhaps you should get yourself site banned again so you can join in.

    Maybe you should have stopped and asked for directions.

    I think this was intentional and happened some time ago. Only sitebanned users can post on Prison. And a couple of other anomolies..

    Maybe you could request "hand holding", as a new Subscriber feature.

    I think it probably is an oversight. I'm not sure its a good idea to allow to chatter amongst themselves.

    I think that it could actually end up turning into a forum for general chat rather than prison, or a 'community' as the OP said.

    Plus taking away the ability to post in other threads will be funny for the first while as they all complain.

    I also recommend that we turn on captcha and security questions for all new threads in Prison.

    I think only Pighead, RoundyMooney, Smods and Admins should be allowed cross post... and some of the 'tards that get sitebanned can't even spell the captchas, so it's a pointless venture... actually, wait a sec, if that stops them from posting, thats great....

    A legend is what it is! Seeing some of the antiquated troll posts they roll out, ah it brings a tear to the eye... *sniff* Letting Pighead in was a stroke of Genius by the way, that's with a capital G as it's such a capital idea. I think that paedo fellow even manged a fifty hitler post... ah the memories...

    Only really noticed it when manTime did it. The others usually grow tired of prison quickly, and f**k off, but manTime seems to stay. Odd.

    I think when you post in there you should be given an arbitrary maths test. Like, say I get sitebanned and want to post 'All Boardsies are Pedrophiles!'.

    When I try to post that a box should come up saying 'Whats the square root of 256?'. A timer would be nice aswell.
