Subject: Why was this thread closed twice?

Why was it thought necessary for the following thread to be closed, not once but twice?

Now if this is stting a 'heavy' tone - perhaps a word can be found for the tone of some of the subsequent responses?

But the tone was set by the action taken. Imposing judgement on the perfectly acceptable and invited contributions of many posters by deleting or closing a thread without their knowledge or permission - I feel is - always far too heavy.

Joe used to set a good example and I fully supported this. Then using the stick was thought to be preferable example to the use of the carrot. I would simply like to see less of the divisive use of the stick and for folk who volunteer for positions of responsibilty to accept that the example they set for others to follow - must always be above question.
