An eye for an eye and a thread for a thread.
If you close one, gotta reopen a different one!

The irony is that you donât see the difference between one Share Deals thread and your rants about the same dealer in 5 different places.

So irony AND exaggeration? You want to go for the Trifecta and add outright fabrication?
.
Maybe if you didnât lock/delete threads with complete abandon it wouldnât have been posted in another place but you delete/lock one post, and I had replied to another post, which you lock, so I open a thread in offramp as suggested by someone who PMâed me with far more courtesy/constructive advice than you apparently are capable of, and what happens? You lock it too. Moderating doesnât mean censoring. You sir, are a valuable (And often funny) contributor to the forum but you are overstepping the boundaries of what a moderator should do at times. Maybe another mod should start locking YOUR threads randomly to see how you like being lorded over by someone without sufficient justification. Or Is that dealer giving you reason to protect their interests and you will not allow a forum to be a forum?
Your posts about your dealer were first removed from a brokerâs thread, then you bumped a 2 years old thread (which I locked) with the same rant, then you opened new thread to rant about that dealer again. We heard you and that was the end of your story about that dealer.

Your reason for locking/closing the last one? I understood the one in the broker thread but you closing really the last 2 but ESPECIALLY the last one is just petty.
As I said - they all are rants about the same dealer. The one out of two locked is open for viewing.
Necromancing a two year old thread doesnât help and spamming your story of how someone you didnât do business with didnât do business with you is unnecessary. It isnât a personal attack to have threads closed.

It wasnât being spammed. I posted it one place and once it was removed (for understandable and previously discussed reasons) I posted it one more place BECAUSE it was removed from that place, which was locked. Then I opened a new topic in off ramp,as suggested, and it was also locked after a smug reply from the mod. My actions were in response to the mod, not spamming.
From the outward perspective, it came across as being spammed. It popped up, in multiple threads, including one several years old. When one was closed, it appeared in another.
I understand that you had a separate conversation the first time and that wasnât your intention, but for someone not privy to that, the outward appearance was not so.
âŚand then you told us about in 100 more. Give it a fucking rest already!

Poll added, so go & vote!
A more appropriate, third option may be a request for clarification on closing guidance. I donât know that having an override vote does much good, but if thereâs concern about how/why things are closed, that may be better addressed just through more communication.
Canât they just PM the mod who closed the thread for closing guidance?
It seems that most of the times, Mods leave comment as to why they are closing the thread in the first place
Thatâs our guidance - to post short explanation

Prefer closed/ moved to off topic. Most explanations are simply said this thread is getting off topic⌠but Iâm sure there have been more specific reasons given at time of thread closure as well
I meant more along the lines of communicating what the general guidance is. It seems to me that the bigger issue is understanding what the guidelines are.
