    I understand the frustration, and I think we’ve all seen locked posts we would like to have participated in. But can I check what you’re actually arguing, are you saying that if there’s ever significant interest in a post (hundreds of comments etc) then it’s not appropriate for one person to close it?

    If I make a “Trump just did something crazy!” post in a Android community, and I get lots of responses and spirited debate, is it wrong for the mod to close it because it’s completely unrelated to the community?

    If I post some super hot NSFW “does my ass look good in this thong?” post in NoStupidQuestions community, is it wrong for the mod to remove it for breaking community rules? Even if it’s a question and it’s getting lots of up votes and comments?
