Of course, the moderaters locked the thread. Not sure why...
For starters, I didn't lock the thread nor do I know who did or why...
That said, I think the reason it probably got closed was the reference to another member.

My guess is that someone used some other VC member's name, which, at the time of that thread, was taboo.
That, to me, could have been construed as flame bait. I'm not saying it was intended to be... just perceived as such. I've seen enough of these types of references turn into all out flame wars.
We don't arbitrarily close threads (nor do we need to justify why when we do). The bottom line is that we want to keep VisorCentral from becoming a free-for-all. I've said this before, even though there's an Off-Topic forum doesn't mean anything goes. There's necessary limits to what we can allow to go on in here. In the end, it's what sets VC apart from other forums.
As for the post milestone threads, I kind of enjoy them myself. I even think it would be nice to acknowledge the milestones somehow (perhaps with differing user titles other than 'Member' like I've seen on other boards). In the end, however, post count means nothing... it's quality, not quantity.
