I do not know where to post, so I simply open a new thread here.
Of course, it would have been good, if the mods had kept their promise.
What happened to the promise to lock the old benchmark thread, when the new is already online?
they are posting to this thread like mad, although they know pretty well they should not do so.
I guess we had a consensus on this, and indignation is the weakest term with which I can qualify my feeling.

a solemn mod promise is a solemn mod promise.
when there is a new thread with identical functionality, the old one should be locked, of course.

Re: Unfulfilled promise
I do not see it as an unfulfilled promise, it's more a simple not thinking about it all the time.
Nonetheless I would appreciate a complete closing now as it might happening accidentally again ... and again ....
Thanks

If we all do this, the old thread does not have to be locked.

Re: Unfulfilled promise
Funny idea you have about what a promise looks like. Anyway it is now locked as recently the old thread was posted in by accident.Lyudmil Tsvetkov wrote: If we all do this, the old thread does not have to be locked.
