I was just reading a recent thread that I was going to reply to, but it was marked closed. It was one about piano removal. Was it closed because it is a subject well covered in previous threads?

Could be many reasons. I was curious about the CL one being closed, but figure..they got their reasons.
One of those great mysteries of life Burly!
Sirscrapalot - Top o'tha morning!
Posts got deleted and thread closed because of "sniping". I agree with the closing but maybe we can stay on the topic. I'll open it again.
Thanks, Mick! Another mystery solved!
I'll try not to "snipe" at anybody. ;-)
It'd be nice if others would do the same. Got issues with people, take it private people. This public drama of late, is getting rather tiresome.
Take the high road, or go private if you gotta have a pissing contest with each other. Saves me from having to read it an the mods from having to close a perfectly good thread, cause people would rather act like a buncha 12 year olds. I really enjoyed that CL thread. ;)
Sirscrapalot - Here to learn to make more money, an friendly banter. Not for drama an pissing matches.
Hey, Mick, does anybody ever get the boot for being nasty? (I DO miss talking about Skippy, though!)
Yes.Quote:

Best of CL thread. Guess someone got to being grumpy in it. It was there for a good long time, then it was suddenly closed. I can only take guesses on why.
I only brought up cause Burly was asking in general. It was a good thread, filled with silly ads from Craigslist.
Sirscrapalot - Really wanted that lava floor.
you mind defining that for me. ThanksQuote:

(Sort of like the other definition of "snipe" -- "to shoot at individuals as opportunity offers from a concealed or distant position")
That'd do just fine.Quote:
