Fine if you do, it just seems kind of arbitrary to me and some kind of explanation to that effect isn't unreasonable to expect with the closure. And who's to say it couldn't have developed into a discussion about how to make ultras viable mid-game or something like that. Even bad threads can spawn good discussion. Some threads fly under the radar. If you see another bad thread like that, report it or tell a mod about it. I will tell you that defending your thread by pointing out someone else's is not the way to go. If good discussion has already been created, that's one thing, but we can't simply leave open every close-worthy thread because there's a possibility that it could generate good discussion. As for yours, there's plenty of other Ultra threads, and the vast majority of unit suggestion threads are treated the same way unless they're extremely comprehensive.
I assumed the fact that it still existed meant it was an okay thread and thus was acceptable as a point of comparison. I see your point though and it's fair enough. I do still think a note as to why a thread is closed is a good idea just for the sake of clarity and courtesy, but I appreciate your reply here.

The threads where people discuss their "brilliant ideas" for how to fix EMP and TvZ are purposeless.

Hello my thread was just closed even though i pm'd two moderators even before i posted the thread and they said that it was fine if i didn't have any bias. Heres the thread and pretty much every single post said its two overboard~ Kind of angry because the (G) Zerg Tears wasnt ever locked and yet this thread with common sense is locked.

Reopened after some internal discussion. I'm opposed to it but since you really did check in with others before I'm conforming myself to majority common sense within staff.

Yeah, I know the video sparked a little bit of outrage (frankly, that was sort of the point), but so does plenty of other stuff that's posted. I don't see why this thread needed to be closed just because people happened to react negatively to the video.

As entertaining as 3 pages of you guys calling each other and the security guards heartless douchebags is, I think we can do without this.
Those threads are always the same.

RE: Website Overhaul
As far as I understand this is the section where feedback should be provided. Now if the topic of a redesign has been discussed to death then I apologize for starting a new thread. I simply didn't see one. I also missed the poll about the horse banner until after my thread was locked.
What I do have a problem with are the moderators who think they are comedians, replying to a locked topic, very classy.
And Manifesto, perhaps I would have offered help with a redesign, had the post not been locked immidiately, followed by a number of mocking replies to a locked thread.

I just want to say when you're in a thread (as a moderator), it's not immediately obvious that a thread is locked. The only way to know is the usual "Lock" text will read "Unlock" instead. Usually I reply without knowing a thread is locked until I get back to the forum index. So a lot of the time we're not trying to be comedians. Sometimes we are!

Hey!
Just wondering why my thread that I just posted was removed, spent some time to make the whole poll and to see how it actually was looking generally for the people playing Zerg. Cannot see anyone having any real issue with that whole topic as it was serious, provided some discussion topics and noone seemed to have a problem with it. And if possible what can I change with it so that it can be posted again?
I want to see some number on how people really feel not just comments from people who are in the mood to whein about stuff or other people wheining.

I don't get why people do this. Yea, I could probably dig in the closed forum for it, but had you just provided a link I'd be way more willing to help you.
Okay I can't even find it in the closed forum so post a link.
