this isnt meant to be spam, and if its viewed as spam, lock it down as fast as you can.

I just want to know why the contravercy thread got locked. i understand it was out of hand, but i just want to know the reason (if there is a rule i missed, or something i/we said specifically that was bad, or the general idea) if the mod who locked it reads this, either respond here, or PM me. sorry if im waisting space, but i have no idea wich MOD to PM.

I don't have an answer to your question but I would suggest sending a PM to Stosh, and Shishka if it was on the Flood when it was locked. Those two seem to be the main mods on the Flood (if I'm wrong I apologize), even if one of them wasn't the one who locked your thread they still might know seeing as their mods.

some MODS dont leave identification (like my case) and arent regulars. i dont wanna PM every single MOD, because thats more annoying than a general question open for all.

Mods are mysterious. Sometimes they will appear and answer a question, other times they won't. If the thread you're talking about became religious, political, a flame war, or just pointless, that may be the reason. Though sometimes if does seems like the mods randomly lock stuff. Maybe if they have a bad day, they randomly block posts and ban people to blow off steam. You never know.

If they locked stuff and banned people for no reason, they would lose their mod powers in a hurry. They weren't given powers just so that they could abuse them.

Five Tenets of Bungie.net Forum Life:
1. Trolls will always be well fed.
2. Blame-ability thy name is stosh.
3. Bungie has no control over retail prices.
4. Watch out for low-flying defense drones.
5. Seven is not optional, but rather, an inevitability.

The thread got locked because of religious discussion.
