others have reinstated my close twice now which i'm perfectly fine with i'm more than willing to defend the close if need be the mfd was the fourth forum where the discussion had been brought in none of those forums was there anything near a consensus that cla should delete the advert the issue failed to gain actionable traction on ani nor on jimbo's page and future discussions were unlikely to garner consensus thus an rfc was opened once the rfc was opened which is calling for a wider community input then the rfc should have run the mfd might have been appropriate if the rfc was clearly going against cla's stance but it wasn't thus a fourth discussion was opened unfortunately having discussions opened in such a short period is not going to result in a different result as it is more likely to simply attract the same voices that have chimed in other places this mfd's action is not an indicator of how well watched mfd is but rather how controversial the debate is elsewhere opening it was a clear case of forumshopping and it should have been closed immediately as such if i read the comments and thought a consensus might be reached one way or another i wouldn't have closed it but it is clear that no consensus exists and that the proper venue is the rfc where wider input can be obtained '''' poppa balloon''
