Why was the 'Does anyone read the rules ?' thread locked?
What happened to no more locking threads?
What happened to all that was said, not 4 months ago?
The point is we WANT people to be able to have different opinions.
But here's the point: In an OPEN community such as ours, we have the right to disagree. Do I make myself clear: You have the right to an opinion and someone else has the right to disagree with your opinion.
I think you have every right to voice your concern.
the point isn't whether I agree or not, it is that we have an atmosphere where people feel free to voice their opinions
We want to have a community site in which people are free to *discuss* issues that concern them
close the site before I'd allow it to become a place where only "valuable members" get to have a say on how the site is run.
If someone disagrees with a policy of the site, a decision of the moderators, or has a problem with a user, let it be discussed civily and openly without someone commanding others to adhere to their demands lest they take their things and go. Because that time is over now.
There was a conversation taking place. At the very least, some people got to blow off steam, but it was a conversation with no threats that we were told we could have openly and freely in the forums.
