It is unlikely that anyone would consider a thread reopening request that is posted in the Forum.

Is this not a bit of a double standard? As there appears to be no end of forum requests for judgement and for editing action to be imposed upon the contributions of other posters. The entire HELP forum is full of such requests and I have never seen any suggestion there that these requests are unlikely to be granted - volunteers appear to be falling over themselves in order to grant these requests.

These request are not discouraged even now but are now requested to be made secretly.

All that I am asking is for a thread to be opened that I started and that many people people were kind enough to say nice things about me in. It would show respect to those posters and make a pleasant change to most of the current threads which seem to be saying not very nice things about me - many of these do not seem to be closed.......
