Default This is the only board ...

which will lock a thread with a positive note. Since when can there be only ONE thread about a subject? A thank you thread is locked while the flame fest that is 50 pages long continues to stay open? We obviously know what kind of players the mods are ...

reasonable ones . . . they chose to keep the longest running first thread on the subject? Instead of picking it based on the position of its content.

Do you have some sort of inferiority complex that makes you think you need to post a new thread about a subject that is already being discussed?

The mods are doing this because it helps keep the forum uncluttered and allows us to cover a variety of topics on the first page. I, for one, am thankful for their vigilance.

No I have a lazy complex that does not allow me to search every single thread on this board. I was just pissed to realize I actually made a positive thread last night only to come on today and see it was locked. Kinda pisses me off to be honest.

Locking threads that are repeat of other threads is a fairly common practice and one that we will continue to practice on these forums

And Rap, it's generally NOT a good idea to misrepresent what the SV staff post

After the 'quote' fix, it won't be long. Can you smell the sulphur?

Welcome, friends, to the Volcano.

Soda and beer are in the fridge over there by TK. Chips and dip on the counter over by Riggin.

Enjoy your stay.

Rap, I disagreed with you before and publicly said that I respected your opinion. Don't muck that up. Let it go.

Neither. I can take you out of my greeting, if you'd like.

No no...just clarifying. I'll stand here and make sure we don't get any double dippers.
