Default Thread moderation

Im no doubt making myself unpopular, though that is not my aim by any stretch, but please,

if a forum thread is locked fair enough, but it is hardly fair for the moderators to then keep posting in it adding their opinions, it stops being a forum then by definition

Kay posted on that thread not knowing it had been locked and also not knowing that Ray was in the process of sorting out the issue.

From what I understand, Ray is confirming the situation with his staff and then, if necessary, will post a response to the original thread which wasn't deleted, just hidden until the issue was straightened out.

Mods and admins can but it's not a good idea for the reasons Mike has pointed out

Then you will just have to trust us

The same course of action would have been taken for any members business as it is unfair on the business owner if they are unable to respond immediately.

It is always better to resolve this sort of issue off the board.

Now if the company in question is BT or Virgin, well that's slightly different

Can i suggest more prominent forum rules then, as a quick search by myself and I can find nowhere that states this? If anything this may be the lesson from all this.
