Frank Shuts Down A Thread

The other day, someone started a thread: "Have You Ever Seen The Sky?’

Yeah, at first glance it seemed kind of stupid. Just some dumbass tag-on to those other threads, “Have You Seen The Ocean?”, etc.

But, as I considered it, it seemed like a valid thread. Have I ever seen the sky? Of course. But maybe not the sky I would like to see.

That is, a clear night sky in an un-light-polluted area.

Just that morning, I was looking over telescopes.com website, wondering if I should shell out $1,500 for a cool reflector scope with GPS and a 40,000 object database.

The thread could have been an opening for a valuable discussion, but frank locked it out. Because he, among others, wants to turn this once vital message board into one big MMP, where everyone just strokes each others ego, no dissention, no strife. Just one big pallid kaffeeklatch.

This is the forum for criticizing mods?

Frank, you’re a dumbass pussy.

You need to lay out and let threads go where they could go.

Who hasn’t seen the sky?

It was the last in the series (all of which were left open):
Who hasn’t seen the ocean?
Who hasn’t seen snow?
Who hasn’t seen the prarie?
Who hasn’t seen the mountains?
Who hasn’t seen a desert?

Who hasn’t seen a thread?

Have you ever seen the rain?

The sky thread was very witty, but not really anywhere you could go with it.

No, he’s a tool. I forget which one but it was odd.

As always, when criticized, I consider both the criticism and the critic.

OK, I’m done.

For any of the rest of you who might care:
The other threads at least had some valid question. The closed thread could only have turned into a joke thread, and I didn’t feel like moving it to MPSIMS.

And while you were distracted by telescopes.com, some teacher pissed in your cornflakes?

You’re going on the list. As soon as the attendant brings me a new crayon.

Can anybody stop it? Is this person known?

Maybe he’s an adze-hoe?

Woo hoo! I’m on the list! In your face, all you non-listers!

Frank is a fiend in human form.
Or maybe the other way around. :confused:

Sounds like a hatchet job to me.

Sometimes I axe myself that very question.

awl, screw it.

I see many of the several thousand post ass-kissers have checked in.

Do you have anything to offer, or are you just padding your already bloated post count?
