One would think it would be better to close it and announce that the sharing of unofficial RCs is not allowed. By allowing it to continue not only is the wrong allowed to go on - but you are also indirectly condoning it - and the fallout from it (messed up devices, etc).

Guess I don't understand the logic.

Shutting the thread down just forces the conversation elsewhere. As wmarone aptly stated: better to moderate the conversation here and make sure people are properly informed and cautioned.

Again, that has been the way this has been handled in the past. Don't confuse comments about Nokia internal policy with any sort of enforcement here... although depending on how this goes, things could change.
