So, Munkus came into G+T saying no more Chat thredes, and I was wondering if this is the consensus forever, and the resaon behind it, other than his terse explanation.

I'd like to know as well. I can understand Linksville being locked, with what was going on, but it always seemed that the G&T chat thread was incredibly tame.

Yes, this is true. I can't say anything more on the matter at this time, but we've had some problems recently, and this is the solution we've arrived at. I'm sorry, but this is something that had to be done.
They're yanking you. The better question is why Munkus is the forum admin now. It's probably their doing to rile us up and spring some new 'contest'. One that ends 3 weeks late will little fanfare.
Aw, c'mon guys. Couldn't you at least have let the current one hit page 50 and meet a normal conclusion? Just slamming it shut and going NO MORE CHAT THREADS ARGAHRGAHGRHAGRHAGRHGAHRG at page 41 seems a bit, well, harsh.

Problems in the chat thread? I'm never seen anything really horrible happen in the caht thread since August. We were good in there :x
if there's one thing we can agree on, munkus handled in an extremely poor manner.
explanation much?

Look, I brought up this problem a long time ago in the mod forum, and we just now reached this conclusion. This descision was several weeks in the making and was not exactly done lightly. I regret that it had to happen before your great milestone, but as soon as I got the greenlight I acted.

I just don't see why you won't give us a REAL explanation besides "It was a liabilty." What did we do that caused problems?
I want to know now. The chat was one of the best things in G+T. With out it, we have more thread derails, more flame wars. Th chat made it all more tame. Yes there was some stuff that went on, but it was all with in the rules. I don't see why you just don't take the complaints to the people who post in that thread and have them deal with it. Change the rules and enforce them.

Suspicious that it comes as the chat thread was getting right to 200...
And the forum is supposed to be down tomorrow.

If you truly regret this happening before #200, you would reverse your decisions. But all I see here is some hype.

We could have at least done 200.
Never said you were. I just want to knwo what the reason is behind it. Other than your crappy one that you posted.

BULLSHIT.
explanation much?
It's not like we went around posting Goatse and stealing Livejournal bandwidth.
I think the problem was the fact that we liked it.
Can't have that.

WHAT PROBLEM
We can all just go there, how are you gonna gett enough coverage for them then!? Why not just get more mods?
STEVE? GET OFF OF THE LINE!

Under review.
I mean, if there was a real problem that was going on for weeks, we'd have known by now.

without a reasonable explanation that's where my money is too.
munkus seems to be involved in these kind of things anyways.
someone also just asked alpha about pranks, and he said he had some stuff up his sleeve. just before 200 is suspicious...
the fact that it would probably cause more problems than... (what ones does it cause?)
and so on
No, just no!
That's what got drizzt banned.
It's going to take you that long to think up a reason you already have? And post on a day the forums are supposed to be down?
C'mon.
Yes. Posted when the forum will be down.
Brilliant!
Fine, two days.
What is there now is just a place holder. I'd rather get input from the rest of the staff on exactly what we need to say.
