Default Oh No, Mr. Bill!

Aww Mr. Bill, you just closed the all-time most viewed thread on Renn-list. It was on the verge of achieving cult status. And now it's gone. I feel so empty.



I guess that we will all have to get back to our bench racing. Now that it's over, just keep a muzzle on you know who.

I think the common link from the two recent thread closings was the issue, not necessarily the thread itself. GR survives to ethug another day.

The "open letter" thread appears to have been deleted. Way uncool.

That's a shame. I thought it was a rite of passage.

Interesting. I wonder why 2 of the 3 locked threads were simply deleted while the third remains. I took Frank off ignore so I could see his status (has be been banned) - he still seems to have posting privileges. So how is it that some great history and my personal best Haiku has been deleted while Frank, the common thread of all these recent fights, remains?

It does seem fitting that his most recent post kind of sums this up - no Haiku, no comments about Frank, yet this remains:
"Can I get a **** YOU to you haters and keyboard warriors. Now, back to work for me. I've got so much to do."

I think this kind of censorship speaks very poorly of Rennlist and I am disappointed.
