Read the part about unixmad, and you will see why I would have left it closed, or closed it myself.
Then bring the mod vs mod to the mod board and leave this one as it is.

Anyways, I'm going to bring up what you posted before --

I would have probably closed it, or would be closing it soon.
Threads like these become repetitive because some people cannot accept other peoples answers. When the same things are said over and over, and no one budges, it's time to drop it.
I hate repeating myself. It's a pet peeve.
Why should a thread be dropped because no one budges? What's wrong with standing your ground? What harm is being done? I agree not everything has to be in the rules, but if it's not it should only be done out of interest of the forums. I didn't see anything in this thread that was going harm the forums.

You mention it's a pet peeve so I think it's safe to assume it has a lot more to do with your personal feelings of the matter than a professional unbiased one.

I just think closing a thread is a very big deal and shuts the door on a lot of potential discussion, which forums are about. Given the activity of these forums discussions like this don't happen very often and to have it disappear simply because it annoys a moderator is a slap in the face to all of us.
