I am fairly frustrated with the closure of topics for drift.
buzsaw finally responded to my post in a thread, but the topic was closed before I had a chance to respond, (even though our exchange was pretty much on topic--women and Christianity).
Now I can't just cut n paste his reply to me in a new topic in order to respond. I have to have my topic "approved" by the moderators.
I want to respond to Buzsaw NOW, but I can't.
What if my topic isn't approved? Then all of the stuff he said that need to be addressed will never be.
I don't like the idea of the moderators deciding what is an acceptable topic before it is posted, and I don't like interesting conversation squelched because it has strayed from the subject of the OP.
That's the way discussion works naturally, for cripe's sake, unless you want the whole board to follow completely formal debate protocol.
