Im trying to remember if we have ever closed a thread at all but I do seem to recall we have closed one thread over its highly inappropriate intention to mock and ridicule. There might have been another thread that we have closed but I'll have to research because I honestly cant remember  I will say that the times when I would be comfortable closing an entire thread would be if the thread's purpose was specifically to mock or ridicule one person or if a thread was explicitely, intentionally, and blatantly racist, transphobic, sexist, etc.

hmmm, then I am supposing that the threat of closing a thread is used to induce corrective behavior??? just trying to guess at what I have seen ... and I am pretty new to online communities.

Wax, It looks like you are asking about a specific scenario that happened recently. In that case, the Mod in question was issuing a general reminder to the thread. If that were to remind people to stop taking swipes at each other and get on the topic of the thread and not on the topic of an individual, then I think that the Mod made a good decision. We don't generally close threads but if they skate right on the line, then a Mod will generally have to keep a close eye on them to make sure that nobody is violating the TOS. I will be glad to speak further with you about this in a private message if you like.
