Locking and deleting topics

Volguus, on 22 October 2013 - 02:12 PM, said: Dear iScending, the rest of the community mods, and WG as a
whole.By all means, lock threads that violate forum rules. However, please try to keep your responses to an acceptable level of credibility and professionalism. Even though I do think that a lot (read:most) of the users on this forum are whining and complaining, trolling and downright rude, that does not excuse your sinking down to their (I guess I should say "our") level.
The one thing that I do find unacceptable behaviour though, is the deletion of topics. This happened over the weekend with the lag posts, as well as today with that other debacle.
A formal response to threads would be great, even if it means locking 10 threads. But simply deleting them sends a very dangerous message: "we don't care what you think". I'm sure that that is not the case (quite the opposite actually), but the opinion is being enforced by your behaviour.
Kind regards,
A happily paying customer, who will keep paying, but would like the respect that a paying customer deserves.
IPaul72: Hello Volguus
Only the topics which violate the current rules set should be dealt with and locked however, sometimes mistakes are made.
About credibility and professionalism I can't really say more than I said in reply to a topic yesterday
iScending, he is a funny fella
but I can assure you he
does care and is like the rest of us here in the community team. He
plays the game and knows what we are facing, this is a common thing
that we discuss as a team. So hence the final
statement "walk among your people in disguise so as to
ascertain their true mood" we do and we try our best to represent
you all, but the book doesn't stop with the En team. We contact the
relevant people and they contact theirs then a decision is made
after hearing all the arguments measuring pro and cons. But we
always pass forward the suggestions be them good or bad
So in all we here value each and every opinion and try our best to make you all heard. This is why we ask such suggestions to be constructive and discussed in a reasonable manner, this makes handing feedback easier and more swift. Just about all of us are here because we care and want to see the best of the game. Also when something is noticed to be wrong we try to correct it. Sometimes people are too passionate about the changes, others see the light side (which is a good thing doesn't this mean they care any less) and some of us just sit back and see each side and take the reasonable approach. We are all approach things in a different way which is just perfect.

However, iScending like myself and the rest of the community team here are not moderators, (sometimes we close and move topics) we are here to be your voice and also represent you as a whole.
If in the future you feel unfairly chastised you need to contact the moderations manager Mr_Kubrick. He will then investigate and take the appropriate actions needed.
But before contacting the moderations manager be sure this is the path you want to go down, he is a very busy fella and will investigate it to the death... this may result in someone having a very bad day.

IPaul72: This as I see it from the quote above, is not acceptable either and
I will bring it to the attention of the powers that be. After all
like it has been said it doesn't send a good message and needs to
be dealt with.
But also on this note I have found that usually the moderator doing the actions puts a post in the topic at the end, stating why it was closed pointing the person in the right direction.
You can normally see these type of topics in the junkyard
Kind Regards

bit longer reply to try people see reason instead of just trolling
or whining, I usually am unable to post it because he has locked
the thread while I typed. Not sure if even my longer posts would have added anything important to the thread, but I hate the lost efford.
IPaul72: Yep I agree you gotta be quick when he is on the scene he is like
quick draw McGraw sometimes
