Mary, I think it might have to do with people who don't appreciate the education for whatever reason it may be.
It's so easy to use the report button, cry-me-a-river and what is there left for admin to do? I really think that is some of the cases in the 'debating' threads.
It puzzles me why such educational threads are closed. I really enjoy your postings as well as others who have equivalent knowlege and are happy to pass it on.
It's evident that not everyone does and getting the paddlock put benefits them in a way?
I can see if everyone is being nasty and most of the time debates are good.......especially if handles in a very respectful and clean way.
I hate to only see one side over and over...........I appreciate education. That is what keeps me here.
Maybe that is the easiest solution to handle.......putting the paddlock and set limits on what can be discussed or said?
