Yeah, go ahead and unlock that thread. The fucking documentary is about Prince and Michael Jackson. Locking it down and forcing people to go into an MJ only sticky to discuss something THAT IS ABOUT PRINCE is not okay and the overzealous locking is fucked up.

Can we PLEASE get a handle on this shit? You guys are really too smart to be so blatantly biased and manipulative.

The documentary has extensive interviews with people IN THE PRINCE CAMP discussing PRINCE AND HIS MUSIC and also Michael Jackson. This does not mean you must lump it into the MJ sticky (which is an absurd sticky anyway).

Use common sense, y'all.

The discussion gets all MJ and turns into MJ.

It's happened countless times over and over.

MJ has his own sticky for all that and any of that.

And that's how it is being handled by all the mods.

It's an asinine rule. The documentary isnt about Michael jackson, its about both. Why can't you give up the ghost with this? You see "MJ" and you blindly lock and delete shit. It's really out of line and totally bad moderating. Learn how to steer and direct discussions. Otherwise, all you are is a Thread Lock Bot.

Yeah I could not believe it when I saw it was locked because should be discussed in the MJ sticky when it is about Prince too . This is a Prince site and it is ridiculous that a TV documentary about Prince and somebody else should be discussed in a totally confusing thread about that other musician.

totally agree with everything you say here, ive been using the word overzealous a lot lately in my thoughts about the moderation on the music and more section. the forum moves at a snails pace yet its swarming with mods locking any thread thats ever so slightly off topic. im not going to go into a MJ sticky thats problably filled with the worst type of MJ fans just so i can discuss this documentary

for fucking real, if you have a problem with the threads "turning into an MJ thread" then step in and say so.



i know you people arent professional moderators and im not trying to be disrespectful, but youd never see this type of moderation on a bigger site
