| | Thread Closure Bug
I've recently noticed that after writing posts which are helpful, well formulated, in excellent English and very relevant to the thread subject, when I hit my "Post Reply" button I regularly receive the message "Thread Closed"
Can a moderator please look into this.

Was the thread actually closed, or do you get the message despite it still being open?

Still open? No such luck. It takes me too long to reply and then correct all the errors. It was just Shut. Closed. Locked. A Moderator thought everyone had already had enough fun. I hadn't.

Happened to me a few times. I make it a policy never to write anything erudite in a thread that has gone beyond 3 pages.

Karma for all the times you closed threads while normal users where writing, perhaps?

But I do wonder how you managed to get hold of my EF Criminal Record. Is "Pewpewpew" a duplicate account? You joined EF in 2016. My crimes are in the dim and distant past. I gave up Moderator Rights in Spring 2012! I served my time. I learned my lesson. I'm going straight now. I promise.

Far be it for me to know people that have told me the history of EF? I mean whoever socializes with other effers amirite?

The lesson to learn is don't think before you talk?

Ok Zurich is a bit far from me, we shall meet in the center of the tiny village in Fribourg I live in.

I PM'd someone today, and they didn't receive it.
Does EF still exist - and would they tell us if it didn't?
