Question on closed threads

[Oldchuck]

Recently a Bennington owner posted about Quality Issues with his welds. After numerous posts Bennington did step up and provide an invitation to help resolve his problem. After Bennington responded the thread was closed by a moderator. Several members asked to be told of the outcome and for a prospective buyer it is important that I know the result. Why was the thread closed prior to the resolution of the problem?
I understand this is a Bennington sponsored forum however customer issues and their resolution is something all prospective buyers would want to know about....

Because nothing else good was going to come from that thread and Mr. Barr can start a new thread with the solution. The welding was bad, it will be made to his satisfaction.

That makes sense. Why was it edited?
