I'm a bit upset...

I think it should be left open for now and let everyone work things out. Which I believe they have done in the past. Looks like that is begining to happen now....smile.

I'm sorry, AP, but I don't see how it is out of hand.

There are no personal insults here, no name-calling, no intentional nastiness. There is some emotion, but that's okay. I think we got it settled.

I understand the desire to keep things pleasant, but it's also valuable to give people time and space to work it out on their own. It results in a kind of resolution that you don't get when someone else does it for you. I don't mean resolution like determination, but rather that the issue is resolved and reaches a natural closure.

Colby,

My opinion is close and lock it. Everyone has had their say in it and it's getting old fast. Let's put this thing to rest and move on, please!! Enough already!

A better idea...how about those of us who have something better to do just ignore this thread?? Then you don't have to worry Colby

TT,

You keeping score??

I think it can be the ideal test case. So far relatively everyone is being mature about this. We are even learning something about our favorite site.

I agree that it should be kept open...there's been only one flame and that was removed before I could see it...

I just got online and this is the first I had heard of the 3 threads being deleted, and the first I have known of this thread, as well.

After reading it, I am very disturbed. I wasn't aware that anything was out of hand in some of these threads, especially the MJ one, but then I can't be online 24 hours a day, so maybe I missed something.

I do think it is a shame that it was closed down, it was a fun thread, but that is just my opinion. I have no control over it, that is between the moderator who closed it, and Anne.

I really hope the members who said they wanted to leave, don't leave.....Daniela, I know most of us would really miss you here, and you add alot to this site.

I think maybe the threads being deleted or moved or whatever happened, maybe could have been explained a little better, I'm not sure what the problem was, but we just do the best we can, I guess. I don't always handle things the best in some situations either, as I'm sure some people would be quick to point out.

I just hope we don't lose members over this....It isn't worth losing good people over.

AP - I think you should just leave it open and let people hash it out.

Cat,

May I ask which "flame" you're referring to? Do you think maybe the person posting it had a little more common sense and decided against it?? That's a possibility. Just a thought.

I don't think it really matters which flame or who said it or why they deleted it at this point.

Sure, I can openly name names, but for purposes of keeping this civil, I won't. You can be right; however, historically this person tries to be condenscending, but gets that confused with showing ignorance by assuming.

Let's just say for sure it wasn't you!

...have they been moved to?

to the deleted threads forum. It means they have deleted from the public boards, but not flushed into cyber space.

On the MJ thread we were getting Elvis and MJ together for a concert. Now you'll never know how it came out or where it was. I'm not telling.:tounge2:

Well all I can say is that I went outside to smoke awhile ago and could hear Elvis singing "Dont Be Cruel" in the distance.... Sounded pretty good. So maybe the concert is on after all. KF wont say..grin.

But then again it could have been just a cd being played. Now if I hear MJ start singing I will know for sure the concert is down here!

Plus MJ wanted Bill up on stage dancing in his "new clothes" aaaaaand we WERE going to have videos. Too bad.

I think I'll miss the rum balls....:laughing:

Well Debby I have plenty of them and dont really like them so you can have my share.
