Locking of threads ???

[Mr.Spireite]

Why was a recent thread where quite decent discussion was happening locked ?

http://www.kissinuk.com/bb/viewtopic.ph ... 2&start=60" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

No profanity, no major fall outs, just discussion.

Could the mod that did it please state why ?

This is not a bait post just wondering.

Its a fair enough question.

[Mr.Spireite]

Its a fair enough question.

Agreed.....

Because it was going nowhere and getting very boring. If you don't like it then I apologise but it was bringing the board down...(I too receive PM's from users, not all that are as active as others)...

Indeed, i start a healthy thread and shock horror it causes "debate" mods and mods mates don't like it - it gets locked, nobody slagged anyone off nobody got personal but a mod said it was boring and a non mod suggested it got locked! back seat moderation and cliqueyness rules ok? bullshit forum.

[Mr.Spireite]

I would have thought that actions like this should bring attention to the fact that perhaps this "problem" a year ago has not been solved by the mods and perhaps certain "mods" are causing a new problem like the one mentioned above.

Would you all like it unlocking? If the majority say yes, it will be unlocked.

No, keep it locked, would like to know why it was locked though ?

Is rational discussion amongst likeminded people a problem to all mods or just some mods or a single mod ?

So if I feel a thread is boring will it be locked if I suggest it and people back it up ?

This is laughable......

No!!! a thread will be locked if we think it's going to cause trouble which obviously you are doing with this one.

Errr, nope.

Not trying to cause problems, see above "Asked a question" which for all purposes hasn't been answered.
