LOL, I didn't even bother to open it- I thought it was yet another YouTube of some 6 year old Asian whizkid, this time playing the Revolutionary. But since it's the glorious Cameron, well all bets are off. Alas, I had plenty to say the last time that video was posted!

Correct. Originally posted by keystring:
This would also mean that CC is able to contact Kreisler after all, even if his PM is disabled - via the whistle. Am I right? Yes. The notification goes to the moderators (and Frank's) personal email, it does not use the PM system.

Steven,
I'm not sure what that means. How did someone else get to post on that thread if it had been closed?

But if he concurs with what was said and done, why is he reopening the thread?

...he isn't. A moderator can post in a locked thread. I suppose that Brendan may have caught wind of some of the "drama" and wanted to make it known that it was now a unanimous "decision" rather than one corrupt moderator becoming power hungry.

I wouldn't expect one moderator to contradict another, so this doesn't surprise me. It will be interesting to see how Frank weighs in.

CC2
I too was a little offended that the thread was closed and so abruptly. So probably within a couple of hours of your post, I wrote to the moderator suggesting that even if something had been posted in the past that there are so many new members joining or viewing each year and even others like myself who are finally participating in 'other' sections of forums, that to close something that might be inspirational (such as your post) should be reconsidered.
I am not exactly sure how I did that. Maybe under REPORT the thread, instead of a PM?
I was glad to see that it was reopened.
I can't imagine the work that she has done to accomplish what she has. And she surely was inspirational to me.
Just a note of thanks to you for sharing with us and to let you know that your contributions are appreciated!
