b1rdbrain Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 I posted a thread that asked about the O.C.B. and the Moderater closed the thread and i reopened it to say a few last words. but the person that i wanted to hear from was booted. so after a few days i then closed the thread my self. i never got a warning but now the mod button is now gone and i just want to say sorry for being one of them people that helped mess it up for everyone.

+Ambrosia Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 Oh, I'm sure that this whole thing has been very accumulative and has been a long time in coming. Link to comment
+briansnat Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 (edited) Don't worry, it wasn't any one person. It was more a pattern of abuse by many over a long time. Edited August 17, 2006 by briansnat Link to comment
+thedeadpirate Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 I'm not sure what you are talking about. Could someone explain what mod button we are missing and why??? Link to comment
+The Leprechauns Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 Topic originators no longer have the ability to close their own thread, nor to reopen it after it's been locked by a moderator. Link to comment
+thedeadpirate Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 Topic originators no longer have the ability to close their own thread, nor to reopen it after it's been locked by a moderator. Maybe that explains why when I tell people where to find the close option that they act like they don't have a clue what I'm talking about. Link to comment
BRTango Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 It's too bad they weren't able to modify it so that once it is closed (by either the mod or the OP) it cannot be reopened by anyone other than a mod. That would have been a much better solution. Too bad they couldn't do that. Link to comment
+Quiggle Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 I'm not sure what you are talking about. Could someone explain what mod button we are missing and why??? The reasoning was explained in this post by Jeremy. The forum software is an off-the-shelf product, so the settings may not exist to tweak the settings as they would like to do. Since this thread doesn't really pertain to geocaching, and the issue will likely later be resolved by those that work on the site, I'm going to close this one. Thanks. P.S. If and when it comes back, or if you were wondering where it was, the option would have been in the bottom left of the topic--the topic originator could see it, now only moderators can.
