  • Locked thread.

    Just curious, who locked the Yamaha G50 thread down this page a ways? There are only a few posts, and there are no arguments or hostilities. Was this an accident?

      But that doesn't answer the basic question. I don't want to change something someone else may have done for good reason.

        It may be tied to a Nuclear Detonator or something!

          FWIW the last poster there was a Forum Moderator called Enzo.

          ***Maybe*** he clicked on the "Lock Topic" button by accident or something.

          And now he's chasing his own tail.

            yeah well, if I were chasing tail, it sure would not be my own.

              I think you read it as: "chasing tail" .... period.
              And fully agree, of course

              Won't get into details, to avoid being banned by Mrs Wenzo

              But "to chase your own tail" has another, very specific meaning:

              chase one's tail. var. tail chasing.

              To run in circles, to chase one's own shadow

              As a metaphor, to chase one's tail is to travel in circles, to follow one's self instead of the thing being tracked, as when Pooh and Piglet track themselves in the snow, thinking they are following a Woozle.
              Which applies here, if you locked it yourself by accident or mistake.

              Hey!! it happens to me more often than I'd like, in Forums where I moderate; more specifically I click on "delete" on the Forum post itself, instead of the Mail notification.

              Then I get angry PM which go: "WHY did you delete my post?" .... and usually I don't have the faintest idea what they are talking about.
              Oh well.
