It does not make sense to delete a thead once the questions are answered!  Then the next thread gets locked?

One moderator acting on his/her own? It seems one moderator is VERY active while the others are...shall I call it LESS power hungry?

Nothing going on here.... The OP on the first thread asked for that thread to be deleted (not locked, deleted) as his question was answered and he did not want to upset the subject of his question.

In hindsight, he most probably should have done it via a PM/report directly to the mods/admin.

No conspiracy, no dirt, nothing

Why lock the next one then? We have the right to discuss it deleted or not?

niner, would you prefer me to have deleted it ? I locked it so that the OP could see it, and have a reply. Is the logic so hard to come by ?
I'm a guy who believes in Christianity. But I'm here to learn about cycling. PM me if you wanna know about my faith.

????? Suspicious how ???? I've placed bid and received the item no hassle
When our lawn mower broke and wouldn't run, my wife kept hinting to me that I should get it fixed. But, somehow I always had something else to take care of first, the shed, the boat, always something more important to me. Finally she thought of a clever way to make her point. When I arrived home one day, I found her seated in the tall grass, busily snipping away with a tiny pair of sewing scissors. I watched silently for a short time and then went into the house.. I was gone only a minute, and when I came out again I handed her a toothbrush. I said, "When you finish cutting the grass, you might as well sweep the driveway." The doctors say I will walk again, but I will always have a limp.

oh dear.

The OP posed a question. I answered it, but I wanted the OP to see the reply, but there is no other discussion to be had by it.

If you wish to add more to the discussion or can further answer the OP's orignal question then I will gladly unlock it.

EDIT. If the OP has further issues, he can PM me, or even send admin a pm or email.

My apologies is my explanation was not clear.

Please do unlock it. I

don't know why you are always on a little power trip? Always warning someone, deleting stuff and locking stuff..  Chill dude!
