You should have closed 7 and leave the Sony/MS/Nintendo ones. Those were epic.

BTW, I am sick of the name a thing and rate it threads as well, its pure spam.

I still don't see how it became "disruptive to the posters' ability to discuss other topics"? was it taking up too much room on the front page???

There were 10 topics, what do you think? Can you imagine if we had 10 Kingdom Hearts 3 topics? We had 3 and people demanded they be locked.

Again, this wouldn't have happened if people had known how to do things in moderation. I really hate to have to do it, but it's unfortunate that our site can manage to kill a joke in hours.

Edit: 11 topics if you count MegaMan's second topic about rallying soldiers.

why couldn't you lock all of them except for the first one ?

Because then it's unbalanced moderating. I have to treat everyone equally. If I say Sony has the right to a topic but Nintendo and Microsoft and Hentai and all the other crap don't I get even more complaints.

So yes, a few people killed it for everyone. Funny how that works isn't it? Hopefully the lesson will carry over to future similar instances.

makes no sense....it's not about SONY,nintendo or m$, it's about the FRIST thread

not to mention the nintendo fans trolling on the SONY thread and posting photos and comments that doesn't relate to the topic........

It was the correct decision to lock all these threads, especially because the RolStoppable support on this site is abysmal.

"It's easy to hate him."
"Everyone should love to kill him."
etc.

That was the best thread imo.

We'll consider doing something about that as well. For now, this is the only thing I'm marking as spam. Anyway, I need sleep, but I've posted this on the mod forums so all mods are aware that you have been warned.
