Inflammatory statements and personal attacks are two of the most common causes of threads being locked.

Case in point, the Saharan rock art by alTakruri was locked. [Frown]

Please have a heart, and keep the rest of us in mind. We are trying to contribute and gain knowledge through these threads. Thank you.

The Saharan rock art thread is locked. I can't add anymore information. [Frown]

Quite embarrassing reading those exchanges, i cleaned the topic up

if there are other interesting topics which a member here feels should be opened up( i'm not talking about topics with 5 pages and only one page adressing the topic title and the other 4 being full of personal attacks i'm sorry but i can't be bothered with that) please send me a pm

to Myra if members allow the topic to go from interesting to sinking back to it's ''closed'' level then it will remain closed!

^ There were many other good topics that were ruined. Any chance you could clean them up as well and open them back up?

The problem is that some posters don't understand that its alright for people to have different opinions about a subject . These people feel you must continue to argue instead of just agreeing to disagree.

I truely wish people could understand that their is not complete agreement on every subject and differing opinions should be expected. If posters understood this reality the name calling should decrease.
