Sins II thread locked

Why was the thread locked?

from Sins2 Forums

I recently made a thread on these forums, discussing Sins 2 and its distribution, titled: Perplexing Partnership between Stardock-Ironclad and Epic Games Store.

 

That thread was locked. No reason was provided, either via moderating post in the thread or via Stardock PM. As no moderator put their name to the action, I am unsure who to message to ask for clarification and answer the question: "Why was the thread locked?"

I have no idea who locked it.

Note to T-Man ...an 'auto record' function would be handy for such things...;)

Having a thread like what?


A thread asking questions related to confidential business decisions that has no reason to be aired in public.

The sort of questions you'd be required to sign an NDA before they were answered, and then wouldn't be in a public forum at all, obviously.  ;)

Jafo, I'm asking TPScroggins for further clarification on their comment. Your answer reveals your thinking, but not theirs.

This thread does not refer to the Stardock-Ironclad relationship thread.

I'm sure my thinking reflects theirs.  I've been an Admin here long enough to know their thinking...;)

Maybe so. Perhaps not.

 

So a thread that asked no questions asked too many of the wrong questions. Righto.
