Why has the Swindon match thread been closed for replies/posts?
I went on to have a look this morning and it's closed, which I find odd, as people clearly still want to talk about it as there were over 100 posts on it yesterday alone. I know the guys who moderate this forum do it voluntarily (I presume), and thanks for that, but it's become far too regulated and anally retentive in its layout and moderating, with this appearing to be yet another example. Sorry if that's offended anybody, but it's supposed to be a football forum and a slight amount of irreverence should be expected, but honestly it feels like the fun is being sucked out of it and many of the interesting posters have voted with their feet.
And finally, as an example, I've had to "select a prefix" just to post this!!! It's becoming like filling out a bloody Tax Return.
