So, all of a sudden, I'm not allowed to make new threads in ASB.

Yes, it was a mistake. There was no rage whatsoever, on the other hand, I was simply testing a way to disable the main subforum section, so that no bot would post there in the future. It was done late at night, so I did not realize that it enforced it upon the rest of the subforums. My apologies.

Edit: To be clear, I am talking about the fact that I was not intending to inconvenience those who 'own' subforums. While we're trying to phase them out, I understand why some have them (such as ASB), so we're not immediately shutting them down. The 'admin who will not be named,' is of course, me, but I'd like to just clear it up and express that this was simply a precaution taken for bot purposes.
