Why was 'Bringing up the action ...' thread closed?

[Clarky]

Perfectly harmless, valid discussion point and no antagonism. Looks strange that it was closed???

Maybe if it had talked about the catholic church or Raoul Moat it would have been left to run ....

I thought it odd as well.
Did someones finger inadvertently slip causing a mistaken deletion?

Fraid so. Here's the pistol, you know what to do ....

Probably because it echoes the bass_ferret "action like a girl" thread. Just guessing...

Considering the huge amount of time I spend on here I can't believe I missed the excitement... must have been reading up on string trees!?

Seriously I hope that's not the case. Because if it is, that's just bollocks. There are so many downright offensive and/or insulting posts in the rather wilder OT threads which are allowed to run and run .... As I say I hope that's not the case.

Ps happy to delete this post if it's completely barking up the wrong tree

As someone so bloody English that I virtually apologize before crossing the road it would be something of an achievement to get a thread locked, not to say a little punk!

Rock n roll credibility at last


Ps sorry for the swear word

+1, I was wondering if it was because of the "time to be a man" comment. I can't imagine it is, but if it is because of that I think it's a bit silly when you look at some of the posts in Off Topic. But I don't think it will be because of that, the mods aren't that strict.

Maybe one of the mods is currently going through gender reassignment surgery and it was a bit too close to the bone. No pun intended.

Sniggers some more.

Just found the thread and reopened it - must have been a mistake I guess? Interesting thread, from someone who has his strings VERY low, probably about the same as Mike's (Urb)

[geoffbyrne]

Compared to what's going on in 'Rude Gear Names?', I find absolutely nothing in the thread to cause locking.

I'm mystified.

Back into my English box, apologizing to all and sundry for overreacting. Back to discussing scale length and the merits of nitro finishes

Someone call?

Oh, SNIGGERS.... I thought for a moment you were suggesting I'd had bits lopped off and turned inside...... errrr....I'll stop there shall I?

(Or worse - suggesting that I'm a mod )
