Would someone tell me why there are no mine accident threads in Breaking News anymore yet there is still godd@mn Iowa straw poll threads??????????
This thread was in breaking all last night as the situation was unfolding. Now it is fading into obscurity for some unknown reason.
There are newer threads with reports about the 3 dead, but they aren't even in front page, let alone breaking. If anyone wants news about the situation, they have to use the search.
I guess it's what they teach at moderator school.
I so agree! Also, we have a potential Cat. 4 Hurricane bearing down in the Caribbean headed for the S. Gulf of Mexico and the tread is being kept in general chat! What are they thinking!
I made the thread “breaking..” as soon as it broke. I have no idea why it was removed from breaking.
