[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 817650, member: 7261"] Buggy you all do a great job and I think most of us appreciate what the mods do and feel for you when the crap hits the fan due to some posters that require you to moderate them. I think what many are frustrated with is the fact that threads are being closed for reasons most of us don't agree they should be closed for. Simply because a thread gets temporarily side tracked or an event ends, shouldn't be reasons to close threads, IMO. Side tracking is very normal in most conversations. Eventually, you get back on track. Talking about historical things is normal. I understand and appreciate wanting to combine similar threads, to keep things easier for us to find, but a mod saying "End of discussion, because I said so" or "I don't like the direction this is taking, I am shutting it down". Topics that may seem "over with" aren't always over. Dom Capers, Brett Favre, Jeff Janis, Mike McCarthy.....those guys have been gone how long and yet we still talk about them and will continue to. Sure the "Fire Capers" thread technically played out when Capers was fired, but that doesn't mean there won't be conversations that people might want to have centering around the subject. Honestly, I can't think of any good reason why a thread should be closed, unless its a duplicate thread and the mods want to go through the hassle of combining it with the other one. Just my 2 cents. Again....I appreciate what the Mods do here and its a job I wouldn't want, but maybe before shutting a thread down, ask yourself "Is it necessary to shut it down and what harm will happen if I don't?"
