Michael, I think it was simply the fact that the thread has already been created once and while your point about it being valuable is a good one, there is really no need to have 2 threads going on exactly the same subject simply because the opening poster disagrees with the moderators decision to move the first one below the line.

Moderators. As one of the sticking points seems to be that the 'charged' thread is above the line while the 'cleared' one is below may I suggest that, as neither are particularly concerned with music, that they are both placed below the line?
