plz lock. discussion over.

[Alex]

yadda yadda.... plz lock this.


Since AT Staff doesn't go to Forum Issues this is prolly the best place for this as there are loadsa Mods here...

I'd like to know why this thread got locked. It was a discussion of one of Anand's reviews and some ppl (myself included) did not agree with a lot of the stuff in the article. We are allowed to comment on articles (even if its not all praise) aren't we??

You dared to disagree with the almighty A???

Heresy!

Precisely. There is an entire forum dedicated to this type of thread, with a new post made for every article.

i think "general hardware" is still suitable for it. plus close to nobody visits the articles forums.

 

[TallBill]

did you see how many responses that article had? quite a few.. obviously some people go there

Never mind that there are 46 replies in that thread, INCLUDING a reply from the author of the article.

Get over it.

I can see a lot of people here would make good mods as they're scared of disagreeing with Anand (with all due respect to him) and will shun anyone who does. I still think that my thread got locked because of what it said rather than for perhaps being misplaced (there are many threads regarding AT articles elsewhere in the forums).

what the heck are you talking about? there are forums rules.. you did not follow them.... there is no rule against speaking against anandtech staff.... in fact.. im sure its welcome... but there is a place for it... depending on the situation


and you've been dead wrong on both... so give it up and move on

 

[txgixer]

do you smell what the lock is cooking, lunch . . . . maybe

yes, i agree, some of the hardware is questionable

 

[Alex]

point made.

moving on.
