I recently had a thread regarding users' opinions and experiences dealing with certain applications from Microsoft. After about three pages my thread was closed by KiwiNZ, without any motivation whatsoever - other than "I would suggest your first decision is to become legitimate and remove the pirated XP"- which had absolutely nothing to do with the thread.
I don't see how the thread was breaking any rules, as I was able to legally obtain copies of all the Microsoft software listed through my university. I was not asking people how to get Microsoft applications for free, or anything of that sort.
To my great surprise, the thread was closed not by just a moderator, but an administrator. One would think that a staff member in that sort of position would at least leave some sort of logical motivation or make a reference to some passage in the rules. But apparently it is not so.
