Closed Threads

.................and before I was the Fucking prophet, I was simply Ezekiel at the wheel.............

. . .and suddenly it isn't so "wonderful" anymore because NOW you're one of "them".

Now ANONONE, seriously. Ask yourself WHY did this bother you so much. Was it because it was YOUR thread? Originally Posted by SofaKingFun

But since you ask. . .

My concern wasn't so much about the thread being closed as it was that it was closed without the footprint (explanation) from the mod action. I think one of the strength of this board is that most of the mods take the extra time to explain what they did, so that folks can learn from the example.

As it turned out it was closed erroneously because someone was operating under the assumption that this place is ASPD II and they were using the old playbook that said there was a moratorium on all threads at thirty days. There is no such rule here, other than ads and reviews.

To be honest I really didn't care that it was closed. . .I was simply looking for an explanation and some instruction. If I was making a mistake with the thread, I didn't want to repeat it.

Some of us like to learn from our mistakes. . .



BTW: Sorry about the pruning metaphor. I was out doing some yard work and when I stopped for a break to eat lunch and read your very long retort, it sort seemed to fit. Maybe it will make more sense to you if you get away from your keyboard for a bit and get some fresh air. The "WE" is a collective pronoun, for those that are not opposed to threads being closed.

How do you know who you are talking for?

You are not speaking for me.

Also, no more pics of anyone's nuts. It violates the image policy. And good taste.

Thank you. Originally Posted by Sarcastro

Go ahead SFK do it right, you suck up:

does that help?

Good point, but there is an art to having that fun while still weaving the humor in and out of the original topic. Why not have some fun, generate entertainment, or at least provocative dialogue, but stay cogent to the thread while doing it?. Originally Posted by ANONONE

No not really. We (those that are not opposed to the closing of threads) think that such pruning promotes growth.

I have no idea what your comments mean in relation to the topic at hand.

What are you doing down here from Ohio Valley fucking with folks down here in Houston Texas, really?
Isn't thre a village in Ohio missing someone?
I don't blame you for hobbying down here, be our guest .We are hospitable folks but you have just about worn out your welcome Annoyingone.
As my dad used to say , guests are like breath. They have to come and go.
If our mods or ourselves wanted your opinion about how things are done down here I am sure we could spur it out of you.

So I guess instead of a thread that get's closed, this is a thread that is closed to outsiders?

Tell you what, if a mod, admin, or owner asks me to avoid these regional areas I will comply faster than you can sing the first verse of "Yellow Rose of Texas."

Until then. . .go tell a Sooner what to do, he will probably care more than I do what you or your dad has to say.

Maybe you can convince the powers that be to keep your little world from mixing with the big board when one clicks the "NEW POSTS" link.

I do topical skims, not geographical searches. If the thread title is provocative, I check it out.

Nope. Don't see anything like that. Carry on . . .

I think the one who called you clueless was right.
Nobody is talking about board rules. It was about basic mannerisims of coming to someone else's house and questioning them, challenging them and so forth.
So let me get this right. You just paTROLL the board all day, all the way across the country , looking for drama ?
Man I don't feel bad about my life now.

One more thing. When someone says something about what his dad used to say, just leave it alone. It is like a proverb or figure of speech. Don't talk about their family on a hooker board. The 'Sooner' you get it the less you are likely to hear what are the two things that come our of Oklahoma.
Get it ? I didn't say it .
Now go drama shopping.

Now how many says we close this thread?......LOL (j/k)
