It just bothers me that after I said no discussions as well as Neeyik giving the same warning, some folks just refuse to listen (and that includes Scali, who even though he'd said a couple of times not to discuss, he himself is contributing to it).
I know locking up the thread looks kinda "too serious a move" but look at it this way -- for those of you that have been asking for a more serious approach by B3D towards moderating the forums, this is an example. Stick to the topic and respect the wishes of a poster (especially a site partner attempting an interview with someone like
John Carmack... his name's in bold in case you don't notice). I realize there are a lot of newbies here in the forums (thanks lately to Humus with that ATI hack of his
) and I can understand such folks do not realize certain "givens" and "rules" here. Hopefully what I did is for the better overall.

Also, I'm pretty sure the fact that Rev wrote up and sent his question to JC probably had a lot to do with him closing it to.
I have not sent the questions off to John coz I've only got less than 10 now and I want to make it a minimum of 10 questions. Also, I'd prefer sending him emails a little bit after QuakeCon04.
I'm not even sure if I should send him an email with 10 questions -- he has refused interviews with me before and I have had far better luck with emails with just a couple of questions. So I may just send him all the questions, split up into a few emails!
