Thread Closures
Why are some (but not all) threads closed if someone "strays" into a political comment? Why are some (but not all) threads closed if people start directing comments at individuals? I accept (not necessarily agree with), but accept, the zero tolerance regarding anything that might be considered political. And I understand and accept the zero tolerance on comments aimed at a specific person. But sometimes comments are deleted or admonished, while others are left to stand. And then, sometimes entire threads are closed without any deletions or admonishments.
Perhaps one of my posts in the Ebola thread should have been deleted (comment directed at one person) or I should have been admonished...but why close down the whole thread?
I understand that Admin and the Mods have a fine line to walk while trying to keep things from spiraling out of control. But to close down an entire thread concerning a very important topic of discussion throughout this country right now? It is more than a little mind boggling.
And before anyone tells me that this a free website and I don't have the right to question the owners/admin/mods decisions...yes I know that. But it just seems so random, I don't understand it.
