Lili has been fair in her discussion of the topic, so I think it'd pay admin to take note of her points.

She acknowledged a very important point - the "wars" were all jokey. If mods/admins are locking the cult threads cos of jokey insults, they're going to have a job on their hands to standardise that rule - cos everyone on this forum always "jokey insults" the other.

And to Mark: Lili is also right in that if Zeta had been locked but no BH, you'd react the same. Standardisation is important on the forum, either lock both threads or lock neither. I'd prefer the latter, of course.

And to arista: The admin have never stated the closure of these threads is due to bandwidth, that's not the issue.
