Cutting off discussion

It seems to me that cutting off further discussion about any subject is just a bit dictatorial and tends to make me feel that the cuttor is not sure of his or her debating abilities against the cuttees.

I know of at least four reasons that would justify "cutting off" discussion.

1. Nothing new has been said for a while, just the same people making the same point, over and over again. If they want to "go at" each other, they should do so with PMs.
2. The discussion has turned nasty or insulting.
3. The question posted is "fluff and stuff', too silly for a group called "deeper Thinkers". Post it in another group. There are many groups on Eons dedicated to silliness.
4. The question violates the "no politics rule".

There are probably several more reasons, but I'm late for work.
