*Dont delete this mods, Im just curious!*
Why were the "How tall are you?" and "Random thread" threads marked as spam and closed!? Nobody was complaining at how pointless they are, and we were all getting to know information on one another. Everybody was having fun awnsering, then "zomg this is spam because it can be awnsered in 1 word" (which it wasent), it just seems really weird and pointless to just ruin everyones fun like that. So far, ive only been a member for a couple weeks and ive seen so many threads closed for no reason. It seems like they are closed out of boredom and not for a valid reason.
Why is this?

Probably because they are considered post padding threads, which aren't allowed.

What does that mean?
This board IS called "Chit chat", yet we cant ask eachother random questions, it seems silly.
Yeah.. Quite frankly I am getting sick of the shit.. Especially when another mod posts in it because they see it as a "conversation" and not much harm..
I am pretty sure I am going to catch shit for this but I don't care.

Whatever happens so be it.
I put a lot of time into this website trying to moderate and help "keep the peace" and make occasional judgment calls for the good of the site and it's users.
I look at it like this, if it is some sort of relevant information and everyone is discussing things maturely then it is ok..
Now if instead of actually putting their heights they put
"27 feet tall ", then that is silly and IMHO could be considered a "post padding" situation.

Well, to be fair, we STILL *DO* have the Physical Description thread (heh, I remember how that started :p)
Also the "Random Thread" thread is considered spam

But thats the thing, nobody said "27 feet tall", but you close the thread because you dont see it as important enough to keep, thats thats BS in my opinion. Nobody closed the "Which do you say?" thread that asks people if they say "soda, pop, or soda pop". and THAT can be awnsered in 1 word.......its just very ridiclious in my opinion and I wish mods wouldnt close threads that do no harm.

he's at work so he should probably - log off, go to the vending machine, grab a snack, relax, and log back on later.
but seriously, I have never seen you get upset with another mod before, Bishop.

I did walk off and get a milk out of the machine.. But there is no relaxing at work unfortunately.

Actually Nick, Cyber Bishop was taking your side in the argument and he's not the one who locked your threads. People look at things differently, which is why some mods will lock these types of threads and others wont. In the end, it just comes down to which mods are online when these types of threads are active, which is why some will get locked and others will stay active.

Huh? I never once mentioned a specific mod.....I have no idea who closed those threads and im too lazy to find out. Im just saying that I wish they wernt closed, because its silly.
