    Forum is too strict.

    Moderators need to ease up. Why are threads or post that don't offend or use anything vulgar and that have even the slightest disagreement with the topic being locked/deleted?

    If you want this forum to succeed so late in FFXI life stop deleting/locking people from threads with perfectly acceptable responses.

    What topics are being locked?

    I've only seen topics moved.

    For example: Abyssea getting a new minimum level requirement?

    A thread in "Battle Content" section it has the red icon on it so can't even click on it.

    That looks to be pseudo-deleted.

    And I read that thread, was going to be nuked anyway. Just baseless rumors being spread.

    Hmmm ok then forgot about "rumor" stuff apparently been not acceptable...I thought I was locked out and no one else.

    I think they need to explain that though in the form of a reply.

    When a thread's OP decides to delete the thread themselves, it shows the little Red Dash thing as well, I believe. At least, some poster claimed that was the case when he "deleted his own thread" a while back.

    well, there are a ton of repeat threads, troll threads, and just plain dumb threads. it's not being strict, its just SE cleaning up the mess of the players who post really bad ideas here.

    They also delete a lot of posts just for being duplicate. If there's 5 "Drop the PS2" threads, they delete 4 of em, and any that follow. Since people have a hard time properly titling their posts, it's really hard to figure out what they were. For instance, as in the above example, one of those "Drop the PS2" threads might be titled "I Have an Idea!" and deleted.

    Make sense?

    I don't think they're strict enough.
