Locking unofficial faction threads

[chovynz]

No it doesnt. Because the forums have a much bigger
role for role play and sorting things out that the game does.

If you cut off discussion and feedback then no-one learns and no-one gets better.

And I agree with Elg.
Admins and mods, if you are going to lock any thread please give a brief reason why.
Xoria did in one of the threads mentioned, however there was no warning or indication
in the other two.

I want to clarify why I wrote that. And this is just my personal view of life, so dont take it as a flame. I am all
about communication. I find that if someone deletes my posts with no explanation, it really upsets me. So in
my role as leader of whatever I am leading at that time... I always give a little explanation. It helps for them
to understand WHY I did something. I believe it also treats them with respect. It treats them as people, whose
opinion is valued, even if incorrectly informed or whatever.

I am all about communication. I hope that people would have noticed that in my posts. I love discussion.
I stir things up so that people really speak their mind. I can still respect someone with whom I disagree.
We are a community with lots of opinions, and if a new person OR an old hand says something that will help
make this community better, I believe that is only a good thing. But in order to be heard, the muzzle needs
to be taken off.

When Mods or Admins delete posts without an explanation, I feel muzzled and I hate it. I never use that word
lightly. I feel disrespected as a community member and ignored. I've had this happen to me a few times lately.
All I'm asking for when I ask for a (1 or 2 minute typing time) short explanation, is the same respect that I
give out to other human beings. That kind of contact really helps me to connect with the Mods and Admins.
I like being connected to other people.

This is the same stance I have towards Mods and Admins locking threads without giving an explanation.

I was going to post a reply to Magoo!'s post just above...but I went away and cooled down. The only thing I
will say is this. I think that your post was unnecessary and downright rude. They have lots on their plate.
Remember folks, that the Admins have RL to deal with FIRST AND FOREMOST. FL is all of our beloved
game, but it still is...Just a game.
