Yes, I am. Get used to it - I was here before you, you knew what you were entering when you signed up...
But if you want a more proper explanation, yes, I redirected people to a well established happy christmas topic. We can't have everyone start his/her own, it would be a mess. We had already merged a few new ones into that one, and we felt that maybe leaving a locked one in general discussion with a redirection to the older topic would help people to see that another one already existed.
I'm afraid I don't remember deleting a christmas post of yours last year, so I can't discuss why it might have happened. It may not have been me. You should have taken it up with us at the time. I'm not saying that we might not have made a wrong decision, maybe we did...but with the way you're voicing your complaint, why should we believe that you're saying this for any reason other than to cause trouble?
As for this topic, I did redirect people to the previous topic, but left this one open as I felt that the core topic of the thread was different enough to warrant having leaving this one open. The hope with adding the link to the other thread was that it would steer discussion on that particular subject away from this thread and into that one.
With admin decisions, we do what we feel is best. That doesn't mean we always do what's best. We don't do our work under what could be termed 'professional' conditions - that is, we might be administrating here whilst thinking over things at work, or while we wait for our evening meal to cook. We try not to do anything whilst under the influence of anything, but right now I've come back home from a new year party and after a few beers, a few of the buttons relating to members are looking particularly shiny and attractive...
So sometimes our way of handling things might not be as perfect as it could be. Such is the way...we're open to comments, but only if they're politely voiced. Approach us like you're trying to pick a fight, and you'll find us get stubborn amazingly quickly. You can call that lack of integrity if you like, but I think you'll find it's how life works - people often won't be nice to you if you aren't nice to them. Still, consider that, despite how shiny those buttons look, I haven't touched any of them...yet...

. The 30th Anniversary passed quickly and quietly with little fuss. Compare this to the publicity of another of the greatset albums ever Queen's A Night At The Opera. A 30th Anniversary CD/DVD of NATO was released. To me Ommadawn and Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody/NATO represent the last of the great epics of musical expression before Punk so rudely exploded onto the music/fashion scene.
