BKS is usually good for something funny, though Beirut's axe is impressive.
What are your favorite "closed" messages from a moderator?

What are your favorite "closed" messages from a moderator?Beirut's dry interjection 'Going, going...' in some thread. Didn't close it, I believe, but is worth mentioning.

"Aw crap... I forgot that I have to actually close a topic in order for it to be closed."
I forget the thread- and the moderator- but that was really funny, especailly since it took 6 hours for him to realise his mistake.

I remember that one. It was BKS.
I laughed out loud when BKS wrote "Teh Closezor!" in the "BP is my little brother" thread.
I admit I'm partial to Beirut's axe. It's very.....authoritative. ~:cool:
Definatly Beirut's axe ~:cheers: :bow:
things get closed so quickly nowadays, im not sure if its the type of posts or the moderators that has changed, the only threads i remember closing in the mtw days were absolute stupidity (like the first .org underground spam fest) and things that were geniunely offensive.

Underground Spam Fest?! :laugh4:
Yeah. The axe is impressive.
My favourite was when King Henry celebrated his 1000th post.
Beirut said:
"This day should remain a lifetime
Frozen" :laugh4:
(it was something like that)... Man, it was totally LMAO..... The best reply I ever saw....

I love the closed messages! I read closed threads that i wouldn't otheriwse read, just to see the close message. Anyway, my favourite message was BKS's in the What type of school are you on (https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showthread.php?t=53516) thread. Great.

i have never seen any funny closed messages on this site
in my view, funny closed messages require funny image links that go along with them. which sadly, the mods here do not include. i'd show a few examples but i'm afraid the ones i have are a little too crass for the Frontroom ~:cool:

I've complimented BKS a few times on his closing technique. Can't remember any specific ones though, sorry.

Beirut and BKS will have to try their hardest with "Closing Messages" now, otherwise they won't make it into the "Hall of Fame"... ~:cheers:

I am going to turn this into a vote. (And it will probably get closed really quickly.)
Reverend Joe
09-19-2005, 02:57
Well, that was rather rude... Beirut closed my thread, without even voting for closed, or giving it time to dangle, like a worm on a hook. I am not really angry... mostly just hurt. :cry:
Indeed, God forbid you should start a thread about cars, women, music, food, astrophysics, gardening, speaker systems, work habits, house design, child care, entomology, economics, literature, movies, mathematics or any of a million other subjects...
No, let's start threads about closing threads.

I think this thread encourages spaming just for the sake of witnessing a good CLOSED message.
