This thread has lost all redeeming qualities and is now just a flame war.

anyway the thread was designed to poke fun at american arrogance.Had your only post been the topic starter, it might have remained amusing. Your continued pokes throughout the thread turned it into trolling and a flamefest. That's against site rules.

I don't normally warn for a satirical thread. In fact, I enjoy them as much as the next player. However, you and a few of the others kept encouraging the flamers and flamebaiters, and it reached critical mass. At this point, I'm limit myself to saying, "don't get in the habit of this sort of behavior." No official warning for trolling / flamebaiting issued. If you could please unlock the thread and just keep an open mind....There's nothing wrong with my open mind, but I WILL observe and enforce the rules of these forums. The thread stays closed.

Up until reading your responses in this thread, I was simply going to tell you that the thread closure had nothing to do with you. After receiving a moderation forum complaint, I locked the thread pending review, and review it I did.

Your subsequent demands of how we should or shouldn't do our jobs here make it obvious that you value your attempts at humor over what we consider reasonable behavior. Given your attitude, it's clear you have a problem with the rules of this forum. I suggest you read the stickies at the top of Moderation, and make an attempt to comply in future.
