I don't know if I spelled his name correctly. Sorry.

I think he has done a horrible job.

I've PM'ed other mods to find out why some of these posts have been closed, and they din't know.

I understand why one would close a topic for "chatting" but these posts seemed fairly relevent and not too much chatting.

Even if they were chatting, Whats the problem? Why is it a problem now? Why is Tim all post closing trigger happy?

I think it's retard and would like either an explaination, a simple reason why, or to be told to leave if I don't like it.

I do enjoy this forum, I do support the advertisers on this forum, I do try to respect the rules.

There is nothing more that I can do. If that is not good enough then I don't know what good this forum is for.

This is 3 examples of whats been going on.

I can understnad that, but hes pretty much closing everything. it says that donut shop is for off-topic discussions, and thats exactly what they are. and whats wrong with come people chatting a little bit? If it becomes a place to send messages to go back and fourth to certain people thats kinda useless, but it seems all the threads have a subject directed to all cca members, wich allows many to give there opinions, not just a 1 on 1 chat.

Your just noticing this now Xiphoid? It's been goin on for awhile just more noticable now. There is a trend if you haven't noticed either.

Just do what we're unfortunately forced to do and its to ignore it and live with it and let him do the job he was given.

No I'm not just noticing it now. I did however fell it neccisary to make a post about it.

It really wans't a problem to me until I tried to reply to a post that was closed. It was quite anoying.

I will never be forced into anything.

I hear ya! [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

This is all you will hear of me about this subject.. My point has been put across.

Thanks for listening.

</font>[/QUOTE]I agree but he's doing the job he was given and unfortunately there's nothing that can be done about it. So might as well just do what ya can, it's good that you put a word in even though I'm sure he's had a fair share of personal feedback.

He even closed the thread I had about this same topic.....only one person was able to voice their opinions...valid opinions at that I might add....

I don't think its fair to close a posting like that.I feel people should be allowed to voice their opinions on something that may be causeing some bad blood amongst CCA members.

I like you,X,enjoy this board very much and do my best to adhere to the rules to the best of my ability,but I think it's just being power hungry to go closing thread after thread because someone has more than one posting in the thread..

Just my 2 cents...

Yeah, he closes just about evey post. No more free-speech I guess. I don't know how much bandwith a few conversations are taking up, but accoring to Tim Baillie, they must be taking up a lot. You know that text takes a lot of space to store. If we all used the "new msn 7.0 beta, there would be no need for this forum." Stick that up your pipe and smoke it Timmy boy.
