Does anyone else find it a bit annoying when you look up old chess.com threads and find that about 90% of them eventually get closed by moderators- I get locking out spammers, nobody wants those idiots polluting the place, but sometimes it's just a general discussion that is starting to get spicy and some mod comes swooping in like a guardian angel nobody asked for and shuts the whole thing down.
I mean, why? Is there some sort of concerted attempt to prevent anybody talking to anybody else anymore in case the masses rise up any you? I can assure you, you'll be safe from that if you allow the people to speak, you have it on my authority.
The vast majority of topics do not get locked.
