Mark and Dreamwatch's Thread Closing Practices--->

[Prismatic Sphere]

Now I'm leaving my personal opinion out of this(for now). But what do you think when Mark or Dreamwatch close a thread? Base your answer to this on when they close the thread, how often, and in what manner. Do they have a bias? Are they just hard-and-fast puppets following the rules of their superiors? Or are they merely bored/whimsical?
You decide.

Considering that they saved at least two threads from the xenophobic, misanthropic, and idiotic comments of anti-Muslims, I think that they're doing a grand job.

It has nothing to do with political bias. They're stopping the assholes from taking over. This is an IRON MAIDEN forum, you know. Come on people, let's get back to Maiden!

 

[dreamwatch]

I'd like to know who you think are our superiors.

I've closed one thread - not so much for content, but it was being dominated by someone who registered here with the sole intent of shit stirring. There remain a number of things on this forum which I do not like, but I'm of the opinion that most things fizzle out or can be argued in a fairly adult fashion. People joining up just to spew their bullshit is a different matter though.

When fights get real big and interesting Mark closes them.

 

[TinMan666]

I don't think I've actually seen either of them close a thread in as long as I've been posting on UM.

On the other hand, when *I* was a mod here, I ruled with an iron fist!

Yep. Those kind of threads should have no place here. Unless this is a redneck forum run by some fucktard from New Jersey.

 

[Mark]

The buck stops here...

So hand over ya fuckin money

The only threads I have seen closed deserved to be, as the closure was the result of very offensive and racist remarks.
This thread itself is evidence that those remarks and the people that made them are supported by the author of this thread.

As if you didn't do your own name-calling and classifications of people into other groups(like you are right now). You think you can say that you don't do your own fair brand of shit-stirring?

If I had a sense of humor, I would laugh.

Well it used to be Sanctuary. You guys run your own show now? That's great.
And it makes me even more glad that I made this thread.

 

[Mark]

When did Sanctuary ever run Ultimate Metal?

 

[dreamwatch]

Pris - Sanctuary never, EVER had a jot to do with this place. Heck, why do you think it's so succesful.

Mark started UM before he started work with Sanctuary and it's always been 100% his. And of course, as his wife, 50% of it's now mine.

 

[Mark]

I never agreed to that...

 

[dreamwatch]

Check the pre nup. :Smug:

I was referring to when you were with them previously. Happily, I'm quite relieved you dissolved your entire partnership with them.

I'll give you a dollar for your halve, Mark probably won't sell me his

Yep, I am a shit-stirrer on occassions, no doubt.
However, that doesn't make one word of what I said untrue, nor does it make you any less of a shithead for starting ridiculous trouble making threads like this.

 

[anonymousnick2001]

Amen, brutha.

Your sanctimonious redirect is really getting old. Everything about your post is supposition and without any ounce of fact to back up, just like this one. I started this thread for *opinions*, to satiate my curiosity and to give some perspective to the board. If anyone's trying to instigate trouble it's you with your puerile insults and cockamaymee conjecture. So what, you think that you're singularly justified to throw stones? You think you can invoke the good 'ol race card to go on your own witchhunt and slam anyone and anything you want in the name of it and automatically always be "the good guy"?

Fuck you and the horse you rode in on.
