    He locked it because technically we arnt supposed to talk about that stuff. Agaisnt the EULA maybe?

    I was confused on to what a N/A thread with a Red icon meant. He answered, I sent sapience a PM about finding out which post specifically it was (because im curious as to which posts get positive/negative rep).

    If you like I can respond when he responds.
    I'll clarify a bit more. Red is always neg rep, green is always positive rep. If the the N/A appears next to the rep (whether that rep is red or green) then it is because either the post or the thread were deleted or moved to a non-player visible area.

    Pretty much this. Simple threads that have a clearly defined question are often locked when the answer is given. They're a request for information, not an invitation to debate. If left open it's not uncommon to see those threads quickly devolve into something else entirely, burying the information and usually leading to confusion or misquoting the answer. Ultimately they get locked anyway, only now there are a lot of infractions to go with it.

    Talking about rep usually falls under one of two categories; Either you're upset that someone gave you neg rep and you're trying to call them out because the rep system does not display who gave you rep (negative or positive), or you're probably violating the rule regarding the abuse of the rep system by making an effort to have other players rep you up to counter the neg rep. Once again, the almost inevitable result is a thread lock and infractions.

    As for WB stuff. We all received really nice letters welcoming us to the WB family. Nothing bad to report on that front.
