peace janner.
im not pushing for promotion , as what you have claimed. im only requesting that the thread/topic of northstar should not be locked by anybody else. i have just observed that some of the topics of northstar have been locked just because it does not work. but surprisingly, i have observed also that some of the methods (dowsing, metal detections, etc) being promoted in this forum does not work also for japanese treasure ( based on personal experience). hence, nobody can claim that his method is better than somebody else. i was only making a humble request that , as much as possible, a topic should not be locked. ( fortunately, the admin has already assured as that there would be no locking of threads from now on especially for those compliant members.)
and even if the theory of northstar does not work to date, there is no justification why the thread/topic of northstar should be locked. i just cannot see the reason why a topic must be locked. i thought that his theory is useless, fantastic, unbelievable, (does not work as you said) or baseless for you, janner. pushing for the locking a thread would only give rise to a suspicion that somebody must have an unusual interest of hiding a well-kept secret of the japanese at all costs. i know that nobody (including me and janner) in this forum would like to be suspected of having that unusual interest of hiding something in favor of the japanese.
