There is no need to 'presume' as to why it has been closed, there is a perfectly comprehensive punned post on the board explaining why and it makes sense that people read that rather than make up stories.
I don't think a discussion about how any board is (or is not) moderated is necessary.
Punned post? Don't understand.
CK made a comment about how he felt moderation should operate here and I agreed with him. Whether such comments are "necessary" doesn't enter into it.
Mel is suggesting that there is a post that was the subject of humorous wordplay. Or possibly a pinned post.
