Moderator closing Exhaust mod thread

[Lambeau]

How do you justify closing a thread based on one "poster" assuming the attacking/name calling role? We as a group were continuing to communicate exhaust specs around the distractions yet you assumed a "god like" role and denied us the opportunity to communicate further info. I'm looking for info concerning resonator/muffler removal and now you have eliminated the chance for me to gather info on this. Apparently, you are in the position to justify the deletion on this forum but are not realistic in your decision to deny us the opportunity to discuss this matter. Just because one member relayed views that were against what we as the majority felt, you used your authority to deny us the chance to learn and express. At some point you need to accept your role as a moderator without pushing your personal views on what is acceptable as an adult forum vs. what a teenagers discussion might be for example. We are adults, and contrary to what you feel as a moderator, are capable of interpreting serious or attacking verbiage vs. fun and entertaining conversation. If you truly think our conversation has been so terrible, you need to spend a year in Iraq fighting for this country to realize what a sense of seriousness is all about. To see you close this thread based on the conversation relayed here shows me you have no appreciation for freedom of speech and expression of opinon that I have sacrificed so much for. You are 29 years old, & I'm assuming haven't served for this country. If you would have, you wouldn't be so critical and overbearing when it comes to your position on this forum. Appreciate what so many of us have sacrificed instead of limiting our voice and info requests. Subdue your overbearing realm on this thread and let us discuss what we as responsible adults have chosen to communicate. Consider not deleting this initial thread and responding as the moderator to explain your justification in closing the thread that so many had participated in.
