ok me here... just to say i dont think that was right to close Bast's thread he has a very valid point !!! esp following on from Jas last week.
 
I been telling ppl all week not to pug toc 10.. cos that was the order !!!
 
on 2 occasions i had to ask ppl not to pug it. ok 1 was space new baby etc and i said to him go for it as he's kinda stuck with times he can go on but hes asked innocently in guild for help and i told him no !!!.. we may need ppl.
 
Coulda gone friday or sat myself im ****ed now means ive missed 15 badges for no reason !!!!i need them for tier nine like alot of others....dont get me wrong no problem missing a full raid on saturday thats the way it goes sometimes theres space, sometimes not however as said i told ppl not to go all week...not been myself and voila late decision and its all okay !!!!
 
rule was set last week !
 
changed on sat night with a few good raiders online kinda seems set to suit !
 
More ****ed at thread closed really nanny state etc all our valued raiders have a voice.... down to GL and GM to shut down if we feel its wrong soz TL no disrespect but he has a valid point and i for one would like to make that decision as a guild leader.

Whats done is done, and i am with TL here, yelling about it on the forum doesnt help and is a bit counter productive. Lets move on and concentrate on the raid tonight.
 
I missed out on TOC.10 too, but still that could also have happend if we where over subscribed. Its one week of badges, not the end of the world.

/moderator hat ON
Just to clarify, I was not trying to stop the issue being discussed at all.  I am quite happy as a moderator to see the discussion carry on and in a new thread, but I thought the original thread was tainted sufficiently by the OP to close it.  I should have more clearly stated this and have edited my closing post to that effect.  By all means discuss, but not in an aggressive fashion - let's keep it both civil and constructive.

If he has a valid point then as a Class Leader I am sure he can manage to make it without aggressively telling a Council Member to sod off.  I took the view it had crossed a line and needed to send that message.

More maturity is needed, less ranting.  The topic is fine, but the attitude is not.

And finally, I know you say it is down to GL/GM to close it down, but it is down to any Moderator of these forums to act on ANY post they feel is out of line.  This thread was sufficiently out of line that a non-WoW playing Community Admin (Penfold) decided to act and edit out the swear words.  I followed up with the thread closure as I had better knowledge of the history of recent rants.  If people post in that fashion again then expect a community moderator to act.  It would not be acceptable in any other dMw topic and it is not acceptable in DMR either.
