Did discussing the reasoning behind closing a thread violate a rule? If so which?

I can assure you that no "power trip" is involved.
The reasoning is concisely stated: /108/fc/97043/1.html#post963640 If anyone has additional questions/concerns regarding the closing of that thread, please feel free to send me a PM for a more complete explanation. Edited to add: Please do not create additional threads regarding the closure of specific threads when the rationale has been posted. If PMs and/or ARs do not render a satisfactory answer, please feel free to report it to [email]abuse@lindenlab.com[/email]. _____________________

Self-fulfilling prophesy? I vote delicious irony. Who can resist it? |

My opinion of the Forums in SL sinks even further. When I posted a problem I was having a Linden jumped in 5 minutes later to move the thread to the "correct" place. Weeks later and still not a single response from LL about the problem. Can't wait till the competition shows up... |

fire all the current forum mods, closed threads, deleting threads etc should be done on a vote. No one person should have the power to do anything of that sort because otherwise people can be biased and Linden employee's are biased people who have lost touch of the real world. If you're not "pro linden" kissing butt then they will generally not like you. Not everyone is "pro linden", some people played the game and liked it, got screwed by linden somehow, came to the forums and posted about it, got a bitch response back and no help, and now they still play but aren't generally pro linden but tehy are stuck in the game because they have money invested.

Get rid of the resmod program.
Use some of that 11 million to hire an unbiased professional or two to moderate the forums. coco _____________________

Well, nobody has a "right" to post. You are allowed to post as long as you follow the forum rules as determined by LL. LL is the Rulerz of Teh Forums, they do indeed have the "right" to determine who they think is behaving in a manner they don't like. Mods are rotational as far as I know. Did this change while I was busy not caring? _____________________

If you would like to discuss the validity of the ResMod program please post in the your thoughts in the ResMod forum.
It is currently against the rules to discuss why a thread was closed. It is up to the (Res)Mod to post a reason why the thread was closed. If you feel a thread was wrongly closed you can always send an email to have the desicion reviewed. As this thread is questioning why a thread was closed, i'm on the fence as to if it should be closed. Currently it is off topic so i'm moving it to the ResMod discussion forum. _____________________
