Hey Mr. Rivieccio - we used to ask your location when given advice.. Apparently - now just close the post for comments. I guess we are no longer interested in helping people with their questions.. We expect people to read every post ever asked and then ask questions. Sorry for the confusion.. I have gone ahead an sent you a PM

TLDR : Answer Summary
The discussion revolves around the recent changes in forum policies regarding comment moderation, specifically the practice of closing comments on posts. Participants express frustration about the new approach to community engagement, indicating that the lack of location requests limits helpful advice on visa-related topics like TM 30. There is disagreement about the effectiveness of the current admin policies and the impact on community learning and support.

Play nicely, or you won't be playing at all. I don't often get involved, but questioning the policy that is in place (for a very good reason), is one time I might.

Yes, but if you do not mind I like to explain the reasons when members attack the policy of the admins and mod on this page.

Few days ago Tod posted that questions about TM 30 without location get deleted. I explain we can not answer without location and just close.

we don't discuss - we close comments... We don't ask 'where you from' we close comments.

We discuss on this forum, not in PM. This so every member can learn about the topic and if incorrect information is given others can correct the information.
