Of course, thread is closed immediately and depending on who you are and your relation with the admins, you might end up banned as well. They simply can't handle ANYTHING that is even remotely close to being critcism or bad about anything theirs.
Remember, you are on their site and you should be honoured by being allowed to be there, it is for your own good since every time you post, you get more people to read what you post than anywhere else (so in reality, they can't even grasp why anyone would want to post anywere else really). But always remember, they run it and you have absolutely no point in trying to tell or sugest how they should run their super site, after all, you don't pay the money for it. Well, perhaps not those words are what you will hear, but along those lines and more.
There are three types of people in the world. Those who can count and those who can't.
