Title: Why was https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=8818.0 locked
Post by: emski on September 15, 2014, 08:31:45 am
I was going to update the summary of the initial post as it was referring to original proposal and not the updates (that were significant).
However I saw it locked without explanation.
Can I ask why?
Here is the topic in question:
https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=8818.0 (https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=8818.0)

weird...

who is the moderator of  'Bank & Exchange' sub-forum?

I have no reason to think it is cob... :).  He is pretty trigger happy guy, I just hope for his own good, he does not own a real gun.

I hope it  is just  Bitsapphire having fat fingers and clicking on the wrong button.....

I'm guessing it was locked because the discussion was getting confusing and a little argumentative.

This is why when I make any moderately complicated proposal on this forum, I put it on Github as version-controlled Markdown files.

That was exactly what I was fixing when it was locked.
I wrote much simpler and cleaner explanation and summary which took some time...
And now I lost it...
Anyway the beach is waiting for me... I hope I'll find some time to recreate it when possible.

There currently is no board moderator for that sub forum .. so it has to be a global moderator/administrator who locked it ..

I don't like it being locked without notice! That just sucks!!

You are  being ridiculous ...

Do  you have ANY IDEA the kind of outrageous stuff I personally (and others) have posted on this forum ??? -My post have been ridiculed by tenths and tenths of posters. There also has been claims by the LTB founder that I3 owns 40 to 99% of all BTSX... Even such hugely damaging and obviously baseless accusations  have been let stay...

Give me a break, this thread was ... just a talk.

Additionally I feel particularly bad as the last post in the thread is a post of mine:

'bump'

I personally think that:

Check the fucking forum every 3rd day and delete/close a random thread there, is the best we can hope/pray for, from any forum operator.

After all checking it more regularly will not help them in their troubles to install the delegate software... so why bother...

I see someone unlocked the thread. Thanks whoever you are!
However I saw no explanation why the topic was locked. If it was an error a simple "oops sorry" would be enough.
I also cannot see who locked the topic so I can ask him privately about that.
I also did not get any response whatsoever.

Which rises some questions:
Am I posting in the right thread?
Who owns the forum?
Where are the forum rules ?
Who decides if a post/topic should be moderated? What criteria is used about that?

PS: If there is an admin here please feel free to move this topic anywhere applicable.
