If a thread is closed, you don't just open up another thread exactly like it. It's the same on any board. Closing the rep thread isn't an open invitation to start up 3 new ones. You're taking the rep thing entirely too serious.

Fair enough - but not an answer.
What is the REASON they are all being closed?
I put it to you, koneko, that it is not us mere mortals that is taking the *rep thing* too seriously.......
My feeling is that WE find it a bit of a laugh, and the powers that be are serious about something.
Only want an explanation

Go read the feedback board if you're really concerned, admins don't like it, I confer with them and they say close it. It was fun while it lasted but let's not milk it for all it's worth eh?

This thread is giving me a headache.

Thanks - that is an answer.
By the way, I was not concerned as such, just curious.
I find it is reasonable to give some sort of explanation, rather than just *because I want/have to*
