    Default Favorite "Closed" Message

    BKS is usually good for something funny, though Beirut's axe is impressive.

    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 laughed out loud when BKS wrote "Teh Closezor!" in the "BP is my little brother" thread.

    Default Re: Favorite "Closed" Message

    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

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

    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.
    Aww, but we've done everything else...
