    So I don't contibute anything positive? Are you saying Jamie is a problem?
    What is your solution for putting out the fire?

    Hey guys...let's not fuel the wrong fire here. Why not take the discussion back behind the scenes where it belongs...between the staff...and any members who feel they'd like to contribute suggestions via PM's.

    Mods right now just seem to arbitrarily decide which threads stay and which threads go, or which posts in each thread go or stay (kingsnake anyone? hello!). In some of these threads, no violations of the TOS take place, yet they are still locked. The justification for this is that the threads aren't "helpful" or "positive"...well, I can understand locking threads in the information forums, but threads in the off-topic area aren't required to be helpful or substantive to begin with (they can be, but don't have to be).

    I feel like if I'm a contributing member on this site overall, its unfair when topics I choose to follow are arbitrarily locked.

    If the Admin has such a problem with this type of stuff, revise the TOS and eliminate the ambiguity. Otherwise, stop locking or editing threads that don't violate the TOS you have in place.

    just to clear up this misconception... on the forum where all members can see it. we, as moddies and the admin are included in this - we do not remove posts unless the poster has requested it unless it is a duplicate post. we, as moddies and admin only edit a post if it's against the TOS to make it family friendly and TOS friendly when needed. :sunny:

    edited to add: of course there are some 'sections of posts' which cannot be edited to stay within the TOS and they need to be removed to allow the thread to continue.
