Oh. Oh man, you really wanna do this, don't you. Okay, let's take this step by step.

We close threads if they have gotten visibly off-topic and/or have devolved into insults and the same things being said over and over again. That is well within our rights as discussion administrators.

For the first thread in question, the discussion was unquestionably off-topic; the original post was about the physical appearance of Bankai, but halfway through the poster started defending his assertion that Urahara has used Getsuga Tensho before and the original point was forgotten. That's why it was closed, and the mod who did so said that plainly in her notice. Also, while on the topic of that assertion:

"By all rights any soul reaper is capable of using this technique since it is just a compressed reishi beam."

Your statement is inherently flawed to begin with since it relies on "could" and "most likely" instead of "can", but let's analyze this. By your logic, any regular ol' Shinigami can fire Ceros because that's just hard, compressed Reiatsu/Reishi in the form of a beam as well - yet heavy focus is put on how only the Visored, Ichigo, and Tosen can do so due to their Hollow aspects. If she so desired, Hinamori could use some of Ryujin Jakka's attacks with Tobiume because they're both fire-type Zanpakuto - except one is exclusively about fireballs while the other is about general manipulation of flame. Oh, and any race should be able to use the high-speed movement technique of any other race because it's all just using Reishi as footholds and moving faster than the eye can see, right? Except with the exception of hybrids like Ichigo and mad scientists like Mayuri, that doesn't happen because it's more complicated than that. You are oversimplifying how powers work in this series. Am I trying to say that Getsuga Tensho is the only energy beam attack in all of Bleach? No, because Urahara did use an energy attack similar, but not identical to it when training Ichigo - it's called Nake, Benihime, it was named, and it has an article on this wiki for you to peruse. It's not even the only energy attack that Urahara has in his arsenal. Meanwhile, Getsuga Tensho has only been used by Ichigo, his father Isshin, and Kugo after the latter directly copied his powers. We have only ever seen Ichigo and people whose powers are connected to his in some way use this technique, and claiming that just anyone can use this exact attack is completely ridiculous. Sounds like something off the fanfiction wiki, being quite frank.

And now let's move on to your second point. As the guy who closed that thread, I'd like to point out that my reasoning for closing it was not "because I'm a tyrant" (which was a joke, by the way, if you've ever heard of those, because of how often we get called that for no reason), but the simple fact that it has been discussed so many hundreds of times on this wiki and across the internet that all possible facts have been analyzed and, short of word from Kubo himself, there is nothing left to discuss. It was a waste of everyone's time to continue with such a pointless conversation. But thanks for the strawman, really appreciate it.

In conclusion, I would heavily advise you to stop being a whiny, butthurt, spoiled brat about this and accept that the mods of this wiki are not out to get everyone who doesn't share their opinion.
