K ill defend the mods here, i too agree with you that too many threads get closed, i personally wouldnt have closed the bird shooting thread, out of taste yes, i would have let it go and let people say their anger towards the guy who shot it.
Mod practices have been discussed before but let me be blunt for a second -
-We close a thread, someone doesnt like it
-We leave a thread open, someone doesnt like it
-We edit a offensive/too large sig to keep the clutter down and 56k friendly, then the sig owner gets mad
-We leave the sig there, people get mad with offensive/too large sigs
Whatever we do, someone will not like it, and recently no1 has been thinking about us, its "i dont like what that mod did, lets have a go" well dont, we spend our time trying our best to keep these forums good, and whatever decision we make, we upset someone. So it would be nice, if in future if u see a bad decision , dont shout off about it, because just because u dont agree, others might. Same in x months time, u may see a discion that you agree with, but someone else wont. We all basically have to take the good with the bad, thats life im afraid. Im not saying "we all have to keep quiet and let the mods do what they like" im saying simple decisions we make we shouldnt have to have a massive 'justification' post. If something is majorally wrong, then say so, but im sure you would get mad, as are the mods having to justify every thing we do or every sig we edit. Esp sigs, every time we toutch one of them, we come back and theres a smutty remark left for us. (ps - the 'sig was removed as it was deemed offensive is the standard line which swamper set if we click suspend sig, we didnt make it up (because alot have complained about that also))

wurd coup..
yes there are a lot of threads that get closed.. but mainly because they are full of stuff thats gunna break out in a flame war. flame wars is NOT what tranceaddict is about...
and as coup said, whichever way we make a decision its going to get bitched at by one person or another.. but that just goes with the job.
if you dont like a descision made by a moderator, then making a thread about it isnt going to change anything. once a mod makes a decision he IS going to stand by it and winging about it isnt going to make him re-open it 
as for the ones calling this guy a lamer or whatever... this is exactly the kind of behaviour and attitude that makes this forum have so many closed threds... because of stupid little bitchy arguments that go way over the top. some people need to learn to agree to differ. if someone has a conflicting veiw from my own, i would discuss it, not call him a bitch or a lamer because of it
