Why was the baby-naming thread closed?

Name my Baby!/ Your fave name

I’m curious. There’s no moderator post explaining why it was closed and I don’t see any of the usual reasons being applicable here.

I was just about to post to it. Maybe it was a mistake.

I’m just posting to say that the moderator who closed it is currently off-line. I have sent a PM to check. Please be patient.

Ok- I was just about to start a thread asking myself.

My guess is the OP asked for it to be closed. I can’t imagine why a moderator wouldn’t leave a note to that effect though, so maybe I’m wrong.

Same here.

Hi all,

Apparently this was me. Rather oddly, I wasn’t home at this time. All I can guess is that my cat got a lucky break walking on the keyboard/mouse to investigate a yogurt container I forgot. Weird.

I’m fairly certain that it’s not a security issue, as this is a computer I bought only a week ago from a trusted source, and it’s got anti-malware software. Still, I’ll check into that possibility just in case.

Anyway, re-opened, and sorry for that. I’m honestly pretty confused by the whole thing.

The name that was decided upon due to that thread was so awful, so embarrassing that the baby’s future self traveled back in time just so she could hack into fluiddruid’s account and lock the thread at just the right moment to block the crucial post that led to a lifetime of embarrassment. It’s the only logical explanation.

“Tramanda”

Ha! Daleks win!

Just ask your cat to post an explanation next time.

“I CAN CLOZ POST. I AM MOD NAOW. I HATEZ ALL HOOMANS AN WAN TU KEEL YU ALL. LOL”

You might want to change your password, just in case.

of course.

What name did they decide on? She said Jackson was her favorite name for a boy but I didn’t see any final decision, especially since she doesn’t know if it’s a boy or a girl yet…

It’s the name that will be decided on that will be so awful and it probably hasn’t even been suggested yet ( I’m guessing it will be “Cuthbert Pygmalion ____” ). Hence all the time travel to prevent it from making an appearance.

Or whooosh ;).

Ironically, by traveling back in time and closing that thread, Cuthbert only made things worse.

Normally I would doubt the “cat story”, but since I’ve caught my cats trying to order porn on Directv several times, I’m more inclined to believe - as long as you believe my story too.

Not if his best friend’s name is Roland.

Oops, sorry. Didn’t read that one carefully enough! :slight_smile: Thanks.
