I'm a bit confused about a post you made on the moderated thread. Was this a moderated thread at one time?

It was never a moderated thread. At one time, it was the only AMD thread. However, there was considerable feuding on the thread because of the business competition between INTC and AMD. The AMD posters felt the INTC posters treated them poorly. To mitigate that problem, they created the moderated AMD thread.

Once the mod thread was established, there was only me and couple of other people left on this thread. At first, we continued to discuss AMD stuff but with only three people things got old quickly. During the nadir of the Nasdaq, even the mod thread began to have less and less posters.

Over time, posters here began to discuss other things besides AMD. If someone popped up wanting to talk about AMD, one of us would link them to the mod thread. This animosity shown by the posters from the mod thread is a bit overwrought.

The bottom line is that they walked away from this thread. To make like it was hijacked or stolen is just plain silly and the product of an overactive imagination.
