I'm scared to make threads.

The question is what rule was broken...even in interpretation of the rule even with my own rule of people's pursuit of happiness, I didn't see anything broken.

The rule on dead forum posts was made after he had posted them.

He didn't massively post the same thing and the things he posted off topic could either be considered buildism related or were just because that forum section was dead and he wanted views.

I strongly disagree with "just because it's dead it can be posted in the active forum" tone. Posting something like scripting requests in a Buildism Discussion, the scripters won't be there, especially when this site gets big. They'll be focused on Scripting. You'll get responses such as: "Sorry, I don't know scripting" thus, creating spam. If you can't wait for a response, then don't post. To go along with that, if the whole forum is dead, someone will wait for any thread on any forum to come.
