[QUOTE="Umbran, post: 102570, member: 177"] King_Stannis, you are [i]really[/i] overreacting. Do we [i]have[/i] to weigh the personal likings of particular moderators? No. No threads have been closed, nor any closures even threatened. There is no indication that the personal tastes of any moderators are being imposed. P-cat is merely reminding us of the overall board policy. If you really want to go overboard, you can start worrying about offending individual moderators, but there's no evidence to support your worry. No fun? Where the heck did that come from? How is asking us to keep threads a bit more on-topic equivalent to no fun? And, saying "We do not want the boards overrun by OT threads" is not equivalent to "The boards [i]are[/i] being overrun by OT threads." An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, King_Stannis. We have seen in the past that on occasion, the board members (in aggregate) are sometimes not so good at moderating their own behavior. So, sometimes the mods see fit to give a little reminder of the policies. No need to get into a tizzy about it. [/QUOTE]
