I have been pondering/asking this question for years as it seems to come up many times while modding. The latest example that got me thinking, though not as harsh and conspiratorial as some, is the following:
Seems to me he [the mod on duty] just doesn’t want the topic to turn into a real discussion.
So my question is, if you tend to do this, is this a personality thing? Is it a product of talking with people you don’t know much about? Is it perhaps connected to being over confident in your own opinions? Do you do this in real life as well?
Thanks, I appreciate the insight.

😆Seriously tho, I can’t say it’s only been men, since i don’t really know who anyone actually is, but it’s probably 10:1 male to female posters (as they present themselves to be). Are you thinking that is relevant?
August 12, 2019 12:10 pm at 12:10 pm #1772735lowerourtuition11210ParticipantI believe, in my case that MODS have their own reasons besides the official policy to cut off a thread. Not a conspiracy, but personal reasons may come into play. My bigger question for MODS is why they sometimes allow inane idiotic opening posts at all.
August 12, 2019 12:12 pm at 12:12 pm #1772739YW Moderator-29 👨💻ModeratorAre you referring to this one? 🤨
August 12, 2019 1:21 pm at 1:21 pm #1772801lowerourtuition11210ParticipantNo, not this one but there are a few other current threads that I believe fall into the category.
August 12, 2019 1:31 pm at 1:31 pm #1772813philosopherParticipantMod-29 did you just jump to a conclusion? 😉
I was thinking he meant a different inane opening post.August 12, 2019 1:32 pm at 1:32 pm #1772812Ex-CTLawyerParticipantJumping to conclusions is the only exercise many CR readers get
August 12, 2019 1:32 pm at 1:32 pm #17728732scentsParticipantJust curious, why were any of the vaccine threads closed?
August 12, 2019 1:33 pm at 1:33 pm #1772878YW Moderator-29 👨💻ModeratorThey were making people sick!!!
sorry, couldn’t resist
August 12, 2019 1:34 pm at 1:34 pm #1772880YW Moderator-29 👨💻ModeratorI think 25 closed one while another was being used. I can check.
August 12, 2019 2:26 pm at 2:26 pm #1772926☕️coffee addictParticipantCtlawyer,

After Tisha B’Av we are entitled to levity and joy.
I closed the office for the day.
My family is all here at the compound. 85 degrees, sunny. The swimming pool is refreshing.
Just grilled a load of rib steaks, asparagus and native sweet corn for supper.
Tonight’s entertainment was a sons/nephews vs. sons-in law/nieces’ husbands basketball game. Aftler Maariv we shall set off legal fireworks.Who needs to fight traffic to the Catskills or pay through the nose for camp. All the under 18 grandchildren, nieces, nephews, great nieces and great nephews have been here since school ended in June. The single 18-23 year olds will be here for bein hazmanim or until college/grad school starts. Mrs. CTL and my siblings are also here to enjoy and supervise. No worries about predators in camp counselor clothing. If at all possible family supervision is best, be it leisure, learning or business.
August 12, 2019 10:33 pm at 10:33 pm #1773159LightbriteParticipantIs anyone else waiting for Little Froggie to hop in here and talk about jumping?
August 12, 2019 10:34 pm at 10:34 pm #1773161LightbriteParticipantExcuse me lowerourtuition11210, who are you to judge the worth of some posts?
Torah talk finds itself in interesting places.
August 12, 2019 11:55 pm at 11:55 pm #1773190lowerourtuition11210Participantjust a CR contributor with an opinion. Some posts may lead to torah talk, some though do not merit responses. Those are the inane idiotic posts I am referring to.
August 12, 2019 11:57 pm at 11:57 pm #1773198YW Moderator-29 👨💻ModeratorI can’t say I disagree. I think it’s a freedom of speech thing.
August 13, 2019 10:07 am at 10:07 am #1773389Little FroggieParticipantLB: Jump jump. (now I’m closer to my conclusion)
August 13, 2019 11:39 am at 11:39 am #17734022scentsParticipantSo 29 is the funny mod of the bunch.
