Major Fubar 0 Posted June 24, 2002 Well, Gimbal, you were the last one i expected to shut it down. And I hardly think it was turning into spam. Come on, surely the mods can take a little constructive (emphasis on that word) criticism. And I hope that post by Who Cares is wrong, that all the lockings lately are the result of the newer mods flexing their mucles to get established. I thought a bit more hihgly of the mods here than that! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WKK Gimbal 0 Posted June 24, 2002 Well, I closed as a reply to AvonLady's spam post. What I saw in my mind was a whole string of those. I don't wanna look like a cencoring dictator so I'll leave this one open for you to reply on the topic if there's any need. But if turns to spam I'll close this one too.

There are a few rules on this board, such as no spam, no personal insults, only 1 username etc. Please find me a closed thread that was not closed according to the forum rules.

Shrikey 0 Posted June 24, 2002 it is true that the rules must be followed. but enforceing em to the letter useally lead to pissed off users and personal flames. im doing full time moderating on 3 different medium sized boards belive me i know. generally i doubt that anybody whould disagree that a little useless drivel does not hurt but when it becomes a post race its time for the "lock Stick". but hell thats my opinion Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He was not intending on ever importing this into OFP. Hence that thread did not belong in there. That forum is for "addons and mods" only, it is not a 3d modelling forum. Therefore spam, therefore closure If it makes you happy, I will have a chat with Placebo about it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Major Fubar 0 Posted June 24, 2002 Look, no hard feelings...I had no personal stake in the thread... But last time I logged in, when I clicked on "New Posts", fully half of the threads that showed up were locked. I just think that some of the decisions on some of the threads have been a bit more hard-nosed recently than they needed to be. Maybe the best thing to do with the Thunderbirds thread would have been to move it to Offtopic if you felt it wasn't appropriate for Addons...just a thought. Anyway, like I said, no hard feelings...
