Don't ask me a question and then close a thread before I can answer. To me, that is obnoxious.

If you wanted these threads gone, why don't you delete them instead of having them still lying around? They are there for everyone to read, and for everyone to put their 2 cents in. If you're going to close a thread because you think it's obnoxious, I personally feel that you are abusing the privileges that come with your position.

I hope you don't take this in an offensive way. It's just one guy's opinion.

And to answer your question, My motivation, is my opinion.

That's interesting. Because I found the fact that you resurrected a thread titled "Dude f--- people" a whole lot more obnoxious. That's what we refer to as a "shit finger" topic. They inevitably end up causing more problems than allowing for friendly discussion. And since I'm so taken with all the privilege and power that comes with this position (yeah, right), it was my prerogative to close it. Trust me that at least a couple of our other mods, had they seen it first, would have done the same thing. I notice you've been in a ressurrection mood this evening. People are welcome to do that. They are indeed there if they're not yet moved to the archives. But why resurrect potential conflict-causing threads? Why not start a reasonable one of your own? Or just read? You may not notice it, but there's been more "attitude" on the boards today than normal. Perhaps it's a touch of post-holiday blues. Perhaps it's from people having been cooped up in the house with relatives too long. Whatever it is, I'm trying to moderate so that this lounge will remain, as it's supposed to, a place for friendly discussion. And not obnoxiousness. You seem to be aiming for the other alternative, frankly.

By the way, if I ever close another of your threads after asking you a question and not giving you a chance to answer it, you can always email me.

Masta, both that font and the statement were obnoxious. If you want to say such a stupid thing, at least do it in a legible font. You can do that, if you must, after I delete that earlier one.

Perhaps you're reading into this too much.

What I aim for, is to have my opinion stated nice and clearly. The title of a thread doesn't neccessarily reflect the contents of said thread. Please don't assume that I'm trying to provoke conflict. Please don't assume anything, frankly. Because assumptions are the mother of all... well you get the point, and so do I.

:twocents:

with love, Daniel.

oh yeah, may i add two things, in her 'defense'... first, the threads are there, but it'd be alot more work on them (mods) to go back and close/delete them all, when they are in the past, and until someone brings them up, aren't actually causing any 'harm'.... that was in response to
"If you wanted these threads gone, why don't you delete them instead of having them still lying around?"

and the other, is that thread was made along time, before she was even a part of this site, much less a mod with the power to close it.... you just brought it back, which 'pointed it out to her' so to speak... well that's all i really have to say... except, that no one, absolutely no one has ever stated they feel ANY mod is abusing their power, except for the ones being 'modded' against... i just find that kinda funny

[TokinAsianGuy]

She doesn't need any defending, she's more than capable, and I'm not flanking her from the left. Just having a discussion, but I hear ya slipknotpsycho. :thumbsup:

[slipknotpsycho]

lol i very well know she doesn't need defending, i just couldn't think of what to actually call it.... i guess it would be making points she didn't? lol
