Re: a few questions about moderator actions, please read
*sigh* There's always one. OR two. Or three. Always a few that can't just let it go. There was nothing destructive about what the Jayde did to close that topic. The result was not so much the topic itself, so much as it was Simter trying to force the community over to an upgrade just because of some idiots who use the fork command because apparently they have nothing better to do. Which affects probably 1% of the entire Skype population. And then you had people like me, who had legitimate questions to ask (take the skype 8 on the mac deal) which is a much more serious issue than a few bored-to-death kids playing dirty. Imagine the irritation when someone has a legitimate question to ask about skype 7, but 99% of the skype 7 topics are all either the forking cult, or the victims who could've shown less idiocy and not added those people they didn't know. Imagine the irritation when legitimate skype 7 question topics are likely to get skipped past because quite frankly, we're all fed up with the forking topics, and the general stigma surrounding skype 7, that I assure you there are some users who probably skip any topic mentioning Skype 7 because it's another case of jese, here we go again.
See how the unproductive discussion can be futile, unnecessary, and simply unneeded? And when it's asinine juveniles who are repeat offenders involved in creating such topics, you see where a mod can feel the urge to say enough is enough?
Why are people even bickering over this anyway? No one was hurt through the closing of the topic, in fact just a grain of sanity was hoped to be restored, but wasn't. And why the hell do people need to have the last word? I don't even care about that, the rest of us are only concerned about restoring the sanity here. And for the record, not everything needs to suddenly turn into an argument, much less an argument worth winning.
