What's the reason for my suggestion thread's locking?

[panzerkampfwagyu]

My Suggestion of Of Manwha Removal in order to secure mangadex from being a DMCA target was recently locked without explanation.
Some answers I wouldn't consider deletion-worthy were also deleted.

Can the thread be reopened? I really see no reason for the lock.

Strange indeed... They didn't even put a "Rejected" tag like they do with other rejected suggestions.

As with a lot of sites like this, the people running them usually have some opinions that they stick to despite overwhelming support of doing the opposite. Like the guy(s?) running NU just stonewalling any requests to add a COO filter for those who don't want to see the kajillion chinese slop webnovels (not that JP and Korean stuff aren't slop, but even slop has tiers of shit).

That guy still hasn't changed his stance?

I would have expected an official rejection for that though.
Also much earlier, given that the thread is a month old by now and the 6th most voted for mainsite suggestion, 5th 3rd among the ones not implemented.

Maybe you pissed off God Emperor Neko Khan?

 

[yogurtman250]

I swear to fucking god if this becomes yet another drama thread...
It's quite strange though...

Theorizing we can aplenty, but I would prefer either the one who did the lock or someone else that knows why to answer this.

I don't consider it a suspicious locking or some conspiratorial stuff, I just find it plain weird.

I think they will just never accept your suggestion so they rather close the potential debate about it. Also, they needed to remove the links and names of other aggregator, so more work for them.

Nope. Everyone just gave up by this point and uses uBlock filters to weed out Made In China.

 

[Bentoki]

The company that wants to build relationships with publishers probably don't want to allow criticism of such potential partners on their website.

Please stop the speculation here.
It's not helpful.

Then stop ragebaiting.

What!?

 

[Trobilobada]

It's because your suggestion was fucking retarded.

Hey, not too much on the captain now…

 

[panzerkampfwagyu]

Can the one who did that or knows why please answer?
From what I understand it was done by someone higher than a mod, given that Bart told me over on discord that he had no idea and could only see the time log of the lock.
I would prefer this matter being settled with a clear answer instead of this stalling that only leads to randos needing to add their unwanted theories or stupid statements like the last third(skip mylovenovel's post here)two(one got deleted)
