Why was my thread closed?

Posters cannot demand the return of a particular poster and threads opened in such a manner to garner public support will have no effect other than for those threads to be closed or deleted.

This. (http://www.tennisforum.com/showthread.php?t=436848) Explain me why. My thread, as described above, had no intention to demand the return of a poster, and it gets closed? I don't get it.

:rolleyes:

Bans and suspensions should and will not be discussed on the public forum.
