Thread Name: BS: Great and not so great, lies of our time
Subject: RE: BS: Great and not so great, lies of our time
Wolfgang, I did think hard and long about Why was my thread closed twice?

If I had titled it 'Why was 'this' thread closed twice?' someone would (even possibly you) could have pointed out that if I was not the originator it was not 'my' thread, and that I should mind my own business. As you may know I am trying to encourage folk to request editing only to their own contributions.

But are you saying that if it were not my thread it was the thread of the person who decided to close it twice? But you are rather making my point for me. The creator usually gets credited with some form of ownership or possibly respect.

Perhaps not now on our forum. Perhaps here the editor now think they own every contibution or at least everything that they do not choose to delete?

Not too sure if my thread title really was a lie. If not a complete explanation saying something is in constant use when it clearly is not- is a lie. I will expect Kevin will post now to continue the definitions of open and closed, maintaining that they are not mutually exclusive.....

And there I was thinking that I would start a 'fun' thread for a change..........
