I was asked........

If you look carefully (or not so carefully) you will see that the thread I refer to was first relegated to the B/S and then subject to imposed closure by persons unknown.

Because of this closuse - Amos then opened a new thread with judgements and made reference in his first post to the closure of the 'Gallery' thread. The words in the first post you see there now are NOT the words of the original post of this thread.

A number of other posts and quotations were made in this new thread and some of them have been judged by persons unknown as suitable to remain in this thread where the posters had placed them. Others were not thought suitable and the original 'Gallery' thread was re-opened and these unsuitable posts were moved to this original thread.

I trust that you would agree that the whole procedure would have been avoided - had not the 'Gallery' thread not been first relegated and then subject to imposed closure?

I opened a thread called Less Noteworty Mudcat Quotations which remains open but was immediatly relegated to the B/S - unlike the one that Amos started and called More Noteworthy Mudcat Quotations - which remains but censored form - in the music section.
