Re: "Mod edit title: No idea what title this should be"
CyberAngel:
Inviting to point out any issues, but when it happens it's called out as "cheap opportunistic and passive aggressive behaviour". How inspiring.
I have no issue with any part of the decision except the very last one, locking a thread. If it was done out of confusion then congratulations, you've closed off the most obvious way to address it. The only way to unlock it would be to contact you directly and that's, well... Let's just say that you people are doing a damn lousy job at looking approachable as administration members. There's always gonna be that hurdle that not everyone will even consider worth trying to jump over.
Anyway, unless that thread's OP or anyone else wants to chime in (pretty much the reason why I addressed this matter openly) I don't give a rat's ass if that thread gets unlocked or not. I just ask the staff to consider the weight of their decisions a bit better. Unnecessary actions like that might result in even more work for you to take care of later for no good reason.
Suwako Moriya:
Independent of the reasons already provided, the posts deserved to be split off and locked because they were very disingenuous about a very touchy subject.

I mean dude, your posts drip with them, I don't think there's any other way to put it. You just said yourself that you don't actually care about the thread in question, so how is it not clearly opportunistic? There are ways to address the issue without doing exactly this and it doesn't help your case whatsoever. I more or less agree the thread didn't necessarily have to be locked, even though it might have been eventually anyways, but you really could have just kept your first two paragraphs.
CyberAngel:
Guess what, people's built up dissatisfaction with how the place is being run can burst out in moments when it has any kind of relevance. It by no means should influence how the matter is handled, though.
Yet here we are, arguing about the tone of the message.
Drake:
Except it didn't influence how it was handled. Tone policing is one thing, but what happened here is that you displayed this behaviour in a rant, your emotionally-charged accusations were wrong in this case, you don't seem to care whether you were wrong or not anyways, and you're mad that this was pointed out. Pointing this out isn't an attack nor is it dismissive of what you're saying, you have the right to be angry about things, you're just muddling whatever your actual point is, if there even is one anymore. If you have problems with the moderation then that's okay, but you got your response as to why the thread was locked.
