We have a new Don!

I can't wait for Psycho Sonny to be made a don. He'd lock threads willy nilly, but at least we'd get an essay explaining why! ;)

2 threads closed already, I don't think anyone should be able to say weather a thread regarding Christina Aguilera putting on weight is not necessary, I think the thread should only be closed based on a complaint from the woman herself, and how likely is that?

If you've got a query about moderation (mine or anyone elses) then feel free to email the person concerned, I've put my name to the closure of the threads in the form of a comment so that if people do feel the need for clarification it can be provided because you know who to contact. I'm happy to look at any queries raised, that doesn't necessarily mean I'll change my decision or be able to but at least you'll know it has been considered further.

As it is the Christina Aguilera thread could have been closed for a number of other reasons - it was effectively a link and run, there was no comment there and none looked likely to be forthcoming, it was almost an inverse "I'd hit it thread" which isn't any better than the normal way round, as a thread it didn't seem to be achieving anything other than as a PC++ exercise. I could perhaps have given a more detailed reasoning in my post when it was closed so that was remiss of me possibly.

Thanks to others for other nice comments. :)
 
Question to the dons? How much time and effort does it take to be a Don ? I mean surely, you now tied to having to read just about every single post placed in these forums? That's gotta take some commitment. Like a few hrs a day of your own time.

Do you guys get compensated? Like even special discounts on your hardware? What's the deal there? Or do you do it just for the love of the forum?

Not sure if I'm supposed to say congrats to you Semi Pro Waster? Or give you my sympathy :D

If you want to close threads like that a detailed essay should be required indeed.
