No ways that this fail nomination is being seconded.

It wasn't Ryan, and... it wasn't accidental... :whistling:

YOU don't want to spam a thread? :eyebrow:

Anyway, what do you lot think. Win or Fail for Anakha for abusing his admin rights by locking the Birthday thread? Oh, and for the other coloureds that didn't unlock it but still went ahead and posted there?

A surprising amount of modern pseudoscience is coming out of the environmental sector. Perhaps it should not be so surprising given that environmentalism is political rather than scientific.

A fail, of course doo. And what's sharp about locking a thread on a whim when it suits you?

Cool - then that makes a seconded Fail nomination for Anakha56 for abuse of admin privileges. :mrgreen:

I also nominate ryanrich and jamin_za for Fails for colluding. Any seconds?
