Moderators close my thread for no reason?

    I started a thread about why moderators close threads for no reason!

    And then moderator "K-9" closed the thread for no reason!!

    Is there someone you can complain to on boards about moderators behaviour?

    If not... could anyone please suggest a alternative to boards.ie?

    Boards.ie is a public internet forum isn't it? If so... why would moderators close a thread that's questioning their actions?

    That would be me.

    There's a phrase we use round these parts: no one player is bigger than the team, going forward we must think outside the box with a bird in the hand and think of the children with the two birds in the bushes.

    Unfortunately otto (may I be so bold as to shorten your name so cheekily?) the more you start these nonsense threads the more the AH Mods have to read them and ultimately close them. Those extra finger clicks cost the boards.ie team some much needed Mod energy. The less energy the Mods have the more I have to flog them. The more I flog them the greater wear my custom built and designed 1862 limited edition diamond encrusted (for extra blood drawing) whip gets. That makes me a sad panda.

    So otto, please, no more threads. They're not big, they're not clever.

    Thread needs more ranting about free speech.

    Plus some of lesser Mods gotta grease ya up, man I'd hate that job.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 135 ✭✭Knockout_91


    How does one define a nonsense thread?

    For instance there is a thread atm called "sneaky fap", how is that allowed while the OP's thread isn't?

    There are some other very weird threads around!

    But my point was that there are good threads with no trolling being closed for no reason?? That's why I started this thread and the one before hand.

    There are plenty of religious threads that get over heated but are left open why?

    Give me five good reasons - in haiku form - why this would be a good idea and I'll consider it.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,009 ✭✭✭✭wnolan1992


    All moderators on boards are scum! Only interested in inflating their already over-inflated egos with their little power trips.




    Oh wait...

    :(
