Why was my thread locked?

I would appreciated it if I were informed when a thread of mine is closed, and a reason for it being closed. .

Pretty much... Philip is supplying us with a wonderful service, free of charge. Heck, if he doesn't like the [size:18]font you use, he could ban you permanently. After all, it is HIS box, HIS money, HIS ISP, HIS software.
 
I've ALWAYS (for the last four years) found this forum to be a very fair, pleasant place to discuss APPROPRIATE matters... and anybody who attempted to stain that was dealt with accordingly.
 
I would like to thank Philip for this wonderful forum... and for keeping it respectable throughout the years. Thanks again Philip!!
 
BTW you may be thinking.... 4 years huh? Well why only 130 posts? hehe. I had to re-sign up this past summer
 
Good day to you all!

I also think Matrix needs to STFU because that was your 1st post so i take it you don't know the stuff that SHS puts into this site and these forums, don't talk bad about people you know nothing about.

Well put.

That is exactly right. Unfortunately, if he DID run this forum that way there wouldn't be very many memebers here, atleast not intelligent ones. I for on will not participate in a forum with powerhungry tyrants for administrators, I've already left forums for less. I'm glad to see he doesn't do this.

This converstation started because SHS locked my thread, and as an admin he has the right to do that. Although he doesn't have to giv me a reason or inform me, I do feel it would be the right thing to do. This is kind of similar to stores that don't give refunds or exchanges. They are not required to do so, but it is nice when they do,a nd usually expected of them, for good business. I don't buy important stuff if I have no way to return it if I don't like it.

Anyways, unless SHS == Phillip, then I don't see why you are raggin on Phillip here, this never involved him.

If any of my threads should be lock, it is this one, now, not my other ones.

SHS and clutch are the ones whom he has chosen to uphold these rules. In most cases they exercise a lot of restraint in using their admin privileges, but when it comes to w-arez, or anything that might be conceived as w-arez, the policy always has been and always will be zero tolerance.

I do agree that this post has gone on long enough though... let's just get on with our lives, shall we?
