McCanns thread

[james7]

My previous thread got closed before getting a proper answer so thought i would start another one......

Why can the thread not be reinstated but left locked?
There is alot of info and links to various things which were good as reference, but are now all deleted.

The thread ran for years without being deleted so anything posted must have been ok till a certain point.

Big al said "It was pulled because it descended into a tasteless & crass joke thread relating to song titles."
So why cant the pages from where it turned into a joke thread be deleted, and left locked?

Why don't you just find something else to occupy your life?

[Shaw Tarse]

It's not coming back.
Move on.

If Ph is taken over by a platoon of barrel chested, holding company owning, alpha types - presumably they'd be too wealthy to care and could set up a sub-forum catering just for this unique interest group?

Sorry, but I though that I did supply and answer to the question about it's demise,

I think that just about sums it up really, after going through the thread there was just too much "hacking" required to get the thread back on track, it would also mean a vast amount of moderator supervision req'd to keep it in order.

So it was decided that it was not viable to bring it back, nor would any other new threads be entertained on the topic.

Sorry for anybody who's disappointed, but time to move on to pastures new.

Whilst my reply may not have been acceptable to some, it was a statement of fact, that far too much work would have been involved to bring it back, and hence it's closure, with a request to members to move on.

So just for the record and to reiterate, sorry but the thread will not be returned.

HTH explain once again.
