I'm up for deleting the riot-pulse-message and keeping the thread on-going. Practically we should prevent the case of a "rough message", as well as the ones that react to that message. Otherwise, the rest should be left and continued.

In the case of the Metal-genre thread, I believe what's been said before phillipe's intervention (than the afterwards reactions) could continue.

I entirely agree with Jimbo, and not just as the victim of the latest mess created by Philippe. I think that by locking every thread because of specific trolls we will soon have a forum devoid of any Prog-Metal related threads(I know many would like it to happen though).

... if people invade the threads, posting abusive, insulting and off-topic comments? I mean, by closing the thread the ultimate goal is reached: destroying the discussion.

The closing of the prog metal categories thread is what made me ask this question ... maybe we can come up with a better solution for such problems. I don't mean to criticise the admins - they have to do *something*.
