Someone else notice that the thered "Pondering" was closed by 3 guys who liked it and the same 3 thanked the last thread. Am the only one who feels this way? the conversation was civil and yeah a couple of repeated threads but I thought it was going nicely. AM i the only one? I hadda ask.............

It was 14 pages long (on my phone, anyway)...and was stuff that was talked about in other threads.

I'm no mod, but I'm sure a lot of it has to do with similar threads going downhill fast and nothing more to be said that wasn't already said in one way or another.

Yes, it was a combination of different threads last one that Wully posted. I hadn't seen yet, and was happy to see it. The thread was in the group, called conversation and that's who having. I don't know. I liked it.

Almost all threads that are closed or removed are done by a consensus of the moderators as a team. I say 'almost all.' In a case where an individual moderator feels it is absolutely necessary to close or to park a thread he will do so. Then it is reported and the moderator team takes a look at it and comes to a decision to either leave it closed, or gone, or restore it. It is not arbitrary and it is not one person's whim of the moment.

You can turn those off if you like. Click on Settings up at the top right, then "Subscriptions" under My Subscriptions. On the page that loads you can unsubscribe from threads, change how you're notified, all that jazz.

The various threads about guns have all ended in endless repetition of the same arguments, with a side serving of snide remarks.
If someone wants to keep beating the same dead horse over and over, there are better forums for that.
