Message:: [QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 175842, member: 112"]Yes, it is. Any moderator can close a thread all by himself without asking permission to do so from anyone else. It would be kind of silly to have it any other way wouldn't it ? If a moderator had to wait around for permission on whether or not he could perform an action - what would be the point of having the moderator ? What would you do if the person granting permission was out of town or away from a computer ? Let WW III break out and have everybody be mad at everyboody by the time someone could take action ? Nope, I'm afraid it doesn't work like that. In all honesty it can't. I've commented on it before, I don't mind doing so again. The moderators on this forum were chosen specifically for their sense of fairness, integrity and impatiality. They are given a set of rules to follow and they follow them to the best of their ability and based on their judgement. They are not second guessed and there has never been a case of one being overuled. I doubt there will be. And whether everyone realizes it or not, that's what helps make Coin Talk what it is - and keeps it that way. For whatever it's worth, if that means that every once in a great while that someone is busy writing a response to a thread - only to find the thread closed by the time you are ready to post - well, we're sorry. I'll apologize for all of us. But it happens. It's even happened to me.[/QUOTE]
