RE: Closed Threads Suffering from ads?

Q Cubed posted a thread here http://apolyton.net/forums/showthre...&threadid=59457
which Ming closed, stating that he was only allowed to post two threads per day, and this was his third. Ok, find, that's a rule. Sometimes applied needlessly, but still, a written rule.

Well, I thought it was an interesting topic, but since his was locked, I started it again for him. I had not yet posted ANY threads that day, so no problem, right?

Apparently, Ming thought otherwise.

Now, I fully realize that Ming is WAY to proud to admit to a mistake. I'm not asking him too. I'm simply pointing out yet another example of extreme stupidity in exercising needless control over the OT.

(waits patiently for MarkG to come in and do the little rolleyes smiley and act like an idiot to cover up for ming, because he's just as stubborn and proud to admit when something is just plain riduclously stupid.)

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

It seems like Ming did the right thing. Doing what you did isn't exactly an offence but it does take away the effect of "two threads a day". couldn't q cubed simply wait two days and then post the thread again?

You seem to be UNCLEAR of the CONCEPT here.

He was being punished for breaking the rules.
For you to start the thread again for him is just a sneaky way to get around the rules and his punishment.


We've had this discussion via PM... So Case Closed!
If you have a problem with this, take it up with the management.

And if you start that thread again... It will be deleted, you will be restricted.

He started a thread and posted the PM...

SEE YA!
