the closing of topics; good or bad?

- First of all; this is not a lame topic and it dosnt
deserve closing. I simply want to know peoples oppinion on
the frequent closing of topics lately. -

So ya'll. Do you think the moderators of afx.nu are a bit to
quick on the "close topic"-trigger? or do they make fair
decisions?

it's biased, mainly this board is composed of rubbish topics
and that is all there is to talk about. So it is totally up
to the moderators to think, oh, well this off topic subject
doesn't belong, but the next one does... Honestly if they
followed strict guidelines on closing topics about 99% of
them would be closed right now.

I think the closing is pretty fair too, but it's like some
of us are like "oh please don't close my topic" lately

yeah I'm with Titsworth, I wish they wouldn't close any, but
it's not my call so I'm not gonna complain about it...

Tis true... no topics should be closed here. I just don't
see any FAQ's or any guidelines that say "you can talk about
this, but not that".

it's a very biased system, i'm trying to hold my tongue but
they do target certain posters and they do take 'outside'
cues on what topics to close and delete (end conspiracy
theory)

Fuck, who cares? If it was a shit topic, kill it, if it was
deemed offensive then go on soulseek and spout it

the borad up? I saw Phobez resently deleted the "big"-tags
in the html so you coulndt make letters big

well my two cents........*clink clink*

this is phobia's MB and his decisions whether we agree or
not are HIS. if it makes people think twice about posting
because they think their topic may be closed GOOD. then that
means that even they think the TOPIC is not good.....

i for one don't like reading ....

- i'm bored topics.....
- anything related to the weather (hehehe)
- etc....

i think we should all think twice about what we post. this
may NOT be the right forum. it's not a chatroom....and slsk
is....so go there. also.....since there is such a diverse
age range....it's good not to have too many topics that may
be OFF limits for some (again there are OTHER forums for
that) !

basically use good judgement... =0)

i'm glad i don't have to make THE decisions about what
topics to close, but arguing about it with the person that
closed it, is of NO value. just move on and talk about
something else.

if you wanna make your own MB....then you can make your own
rules.

*nuff said* WHEW.......=0)

hahahahha

*GROUND HOG DAY*

thanks......i just don't think we should second guess
things.....it won't RE-OPEN the topic.....so if peeps have a
problem.....email phobia or whomever.

makes sense to me......
