"I have sometimes seen comments added to threads after the 175 posts and after it has been closed
Is that facility only available to Platinum members?"
I've seen a comment on a similar thread that says comments can be added to a closed thread by I think, using the back button or something. The comments aren't added after its closed but are posted at the same time as its closed.
No such thing as platinum otherwise it would be listed on the upgrade page |

"A thread closes when it gets too big at 175 responses
Or mods dont like the way its going?"
It would however say that its been closed by a mod with a comment from them as to say why |

Nope, you often just get "thread closed by moderator" that's it |

The mods usually post when they close the thread, although its usually pretty obvious anyway.
But dont forget that Admin also close threads themselves but it still says closed by moderator |

"Do the Mods not interact on the forum then if you ask a question?
I thought a Mod might let us know why threads get closed because of their length. "
Yep they do, and I think you'll find that they have 
But it doesnt have to be a mod that answers questions on the forum - lots of posters have been using the site for yonks and know the answers to the common quieries, and are happy to answer questions when they can to help people out |

Long threads get AUTOMATICALLY closed by the forum software when the go over 175 posts. When you look in the thread, the "Reply in forum" & "+quote" options will have been replaced by "(closed, thread got too big)".
If a Mod closes a thread, then the "Reply in forum" & "+quote" options will have been replaced by "(thread closed by moderator)". They'll frequently make a comment to explain why the thread has been closed, unless it's glaringly obvious. |
