You close a thread that has a legitimate strategy discussion going on just because there's a few insults?

What the hell is this crap? One of the people giving solid advice was going to help me with my setup, but since I'm unable to be on 24/7 I was unable to continue the conversation. Now the thread is completely ruined. That thread seemed very civil compared to other threads around, but I don't see them getting closed all of the time.

There's no reason to mod these boards so conservatively. Part of giving out strategy and advice in a game where sometimes being unconventional works is a few insults here and there.

You want players to visit these boards so they can get advice on how to play and hopefully bring in more of their friends to the game, correct? People aren't going to visit boards where threads are closed all the time for stupid reasons.
