Thread closed without explanation

Why'd they lock the thread about Mesić?
And why the hell did so many posts get nuked too...
I didn't see any warning from the mods anywhere before this happened.

Forum threads get archived once they hit the 10,000 post mark, and a fresh one is launched. Anything beyond that limit gets moved over to the new thread. It looks like the moderators followed that same protocol here.

New thread:

Every post exceeding 10,000 has been migrated to the new thread, and just one single post was deleted today from the Mesić 1 topic.☕

Thanks... looks like they dropped that notice right after I posted.

All sorted. Ready to close up shop.
