Thank you so much for starting Part 2 for us. The information in the previous thread was outstanding and the work that many put into it was awesome!

That being said, I don't understand why the original thread was locked in the first place. The reason that was given doesn't hold much water in my opinion.

Keep the info flowing!

The reason for locking the previous thread may not hold water for you, but believe me, every time any of the moderators attempted to access the thread the entire system slowed down. There is a known problem with how the database software works and John Robinson has not yet fixed it.

If we were trying to hide something, we could have just pulled the thread. We didn't. We merely locked it so that no more replies could be posted. The entire thread is still visible to anyone who wants to read it.

We then invited participants to start a new thread.

Semantics and who knows why?

I have never observed John Robinson nor Jim nor any of their tireless unpaid assistants to do arbitrary things for squirrelly reasons.

I'm sure it was the wisest way they knew to handle a problem if the facts are remotely close to as presented. And I believe them to be straightforward, as stated.
