This was a buttfuck session gone wrong.
Ace, I'm the last person in this forum who will ever RTM anything and any admin or mod are more than welcome to verify that fact. Can you say the same? I don't play that bitch game that so many people in here play. Everyone is more than welcome to insult me all they want and I 100% assure you that I will never RTM it because I simply don't care enough to do so.Have a great day
Anyway, I was hoping that you would actually explain what the topic is though just to clarify to those of us not in the know so that we don't get points for being off topic. Originally Posted by Lucas McCain

How is that different than your usual. I already asked the mod to end thread. So your point is moot.

This mod is having a chilling effect on the conversation.#6 - Respect the topics presented by those who start a thread. Attempts to derail a thread or change it's direction is referred to as thread hijack and will be discouraged. Attempts to guide a thread in the right direction are appreciated, while responses to posts which hijack a thread are not.
Conversations have to able to roam freely. This is more like a college dissertation. Dry, to the specific point, and usually uninteresting. Originally Posted by the_real_Barleycorn

Note: Staff will consider a request from the original poster to remove a thread/post they have made provided it was recently posted and not replied to. As a general rule, staff will not consider such requests once a thread or post has been visible for at least 4 hours or received 2 or more replies. In these cases, a request from the OP to lock the thread is more appropriate and will receive consideration.
No reason to lock the thread. Yet
#6 - Respect the topics presented by those who start a thread. Attempts to derail a thread or change it's direction is referred to as thread hijack and will be discouraged. Attempts to guide a thread in the right direction are appreciated, while responses to posts which hijack a thread are not.
When "conversations" stay on topic, there is no reason for Staff to intervene.
When members hijack a thread or begin/continue attacks or harassment of a Member in the Thread, that requires Staff to take action.
It's quite simple.
If you do not want Staff involvement in the Thread or this Forum, Post IAW the Guidelines. Originally Posted by biomed1
