ericthai Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 In dont understand why the moderators and members push to close a topic so fast. Members reply in on a topic that it's been covered so many times and push to close a topic, why? If you are not intrested then dont follow it. The moderators seem to follow suite, looking for any reason to close the topic, are they over worked? Several times I see a topic listed in the "today best" email and it's closed already, when I'm intrested in the topic too. Saw one a week ago or so, seems the moderator was not really paying attention to what was going on, which is understandable with teh amount of work they have, but one of the members said the topic broke forum rules, which if he looked closely to the topic and what was being asked was not. The guy was looking for the way to tell the difference between fake Viagra and copies so he could make sure he gets the real stuff, this is not breaking the rules he was not promoting copies and was not looking where to buy copies but was looking for answers on how to tell the difference to make sure he gets the real stuff. Member stated this is breaking rules moderator agreed and topic closed. Another one I was following a member complained we got off topic moderator agreed and closed topic. Another one the OP was not responding and it was closed. I was following it and Im sure some other members were following, So, why are they so quick to close a topic. Just want to know if there is a good reason why to close so fast, if so then we can just start another thread on the same topic if closed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pattaya_girl Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 But how do you know that certain bad (breaking forum rules) comments may have been deleted before the topic was closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThaiEye Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 (edited) I feel disappointed too that the moderators decided to 'close' the highly popular Big Brother in Thailand thread because of one poster, Whistleblower. Strange that the mods... close such a thread when the troublemaker was a newbie! This was alongside his side-kick 'persona wannabe' Pattayaman71 (another brand new newbie) . Potss could simply have been deleted or, and warnings put out - but no, after almost a 100,000 hits they simply shut the conversation down!

It does seem a nonsense when the series has not even finished airing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
