Can tell me why is this thread locked?

Thread was informing forum users about the positive benefits of the Comprehensive Economic Cooperation Agreement.

So now can’t even share positive information from credible and official sources like MTI?

If so, then you guys might as well officially deem this as a taboo subject so no one even speaks about it.

Thread locked because it came at the heels of the the **** word bug, and people just wanted to test the bug for the fun of it.

All related threads are locked/trashed.

Can’t blame people for testing it out of curiosity since it was a bug that took everyone by surprise.

But other threads deleted I understand.

For this thread I don’t see anyone testing it, at most only a few. Why not delete those or put a disclaimer instead?

And does this mean we can post or share similar information again once the “testing hype” dies down?

We are reviewing it and will decide later.

A trial balloon, or kite-flying (used in the UK and elsewhere), is information sent out to the media in order to observe the reaction of an audience.[1] It can be used by companies sending out press releases to judge reaction by customers, or it can be used by politicians who deliberately leak information on a policy change under consideration.

Thanks. You may close this now.

Bro, you've started it to stir by assuming our possible change of stance. You've indicated this in your opening of that thread.

It's a technical issue that's resolved from testing on the wrong server and everything is back to normal as reflected in another feedback thread. As such, we reserve the right to close it.

There's nothing new to the **** agreement that anyone isn't aware about

We will close the thread again if we deem necessary.

Thank you.
