What gives? Are you a Blockbuster fanboy or something?

Are you serious Ewok? I mean I don't wanna be a jerk, but you made a pointless thread, now you make this one? You've been here for a while, and you know about clutter.

Posting a thread about DVD rentals is a far cry from a news thread. I mean, correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this a movie board and things movie related?

Yeah, why did you close that thread?How come you will keep Mr.Paynes up for like a few weeks and his was up for like 15 minutes.

If you look towards the middle of the main forum page, there's a forum titled "DVD and Blu-Ray Disc." That title means that discussions pertaining to that topic, such as your forum, belong in there, especially topics that we already have 8,000 threads on.
:rolleyes:

Let's see... and you couldn't have just moved it? That would have been so difficult. And I can't find a single one about Blockbuster vs. Hollywood videos anywhere. But nice excuse. :rolleyes:

Because it's a discussion that will last 10 minutes. You can discuss it in any number of threads, and I still don't get why you just didn't put it in that forum in the first place. You've been here long enough (and that also means you don't need to make other pointless threads such as this).

Well, as explained in the thread (which I'm sure you didn't read through) I said that I thought it would be best in this forum because of the amount of attention it would get compared to the DVD section. Apparently MasterChief and some others felt it was stupid to close it too.

You say it wouldn't last long but you were the one to end that argument. And no offense but the DVD and Blu-Ray section is empty as hell and is rarely full of anything. If anything Ewok's thread would of got three maybe four decent posts out of it.
Just find it rediculous that you can keep Mr.Payne's useless threads on for weeks and some Bible Thumpers preachings on for a couple weeks and Ewok is cut off in 10 minutes. That is an excuse Mr.Doomsday.

It's not exactly the same, but this is somewhat similar to your thread:
http://forums.comingsoon.net/showthread.php?t=49120&highlight=blockbuster
I only say that because I get the feeling your thread would have turned into "Let's all bash Blockbuster," as opposed to the thread title's idea.

Well I'm sure if all the posters were mods then everyone would be happy, but then the entire forum would be borderline retarded, which is why a few of us were chosen to be mods. Not you guys. We decide what to do to keep things in order, not you guys.

Well atleast you didn't throw you being the mod around enough. Don't be to cozy in those big boy shorts...

And again you still have no answer for why you left Mr.Payne's Rambo In Space and just left it. But hey you are the mod.

Because there's a difference between a random thread by some dumb poster and a thread that Ewok made that a) is in the wrong forum and b) has been done to death in one form or another. And of course it's my fault because I tell the posters to make these threads, right? :rolleyes:

I'm only pointing out the obvious. Just saw something that obviously wasn't fair but since he wears the Mod pants what am I suppose to do.

Christ. Doomsday doesn't have to answer to you. Whether you agree or disagree with his action, he made it and that's his decision. Not yours, not Ewok's, his.

Again,people are seeing this as others using this as a home and creating drama.
I for one was confused and was looking foor a reason why Doomsday closed the thread without moving it or just let it be. It clearily wasn't hurting anybody.
But nevermind.

What the hell? I go off line for a few hours, come back, and looks like a coup is about to be staged. Do I need to call in some midgets to keep the peace?

HAHAHA, That was funny. No I'm just really confused and need clearing up. But it seems that Ewok left me. *Looks around*Yep he's gone.

Oh did you need your statement to reassure that or did you look at the big red boldness in your name. I'm not stupid, clearly wondering why there wasn't a reason it was moved or something.

It happens. Ewok can copy and paste a new thread if he'd like. It would have taken less time then post a complaint on the boards.

I'm still not sure why the hell the thread got closed. It's pointless and childish just to close a thread "just because" instead of moving it to the proper place.

I think we all need to calm down before this thing gets out of hand. However, it does seem like Dooms should've probably just moved it, rather than closing it outright.

So I guess the Mods got what they wanted. A thread got wild just because they closed it for the hell of it.

How about this, I'm closing this thread because it's just a bunch of complaining. And as I SAID, closing and moving a thread is hardly a difference. Just repost the damn thread.
