I was just wondering if any one has experienced any thing similar?

[Viva La Bob]

I posted this thread a while ago and I was wondering if anyone else had experienced something similar. This is not a criticism of the moderators whoever they may be but I was just wondering wether this was really necessary???

There is the link i just wanted another opinion.

It's because your thread was pretty much discussionless.

 

[Baby Tea]

Yeah, it was necessary.
The thread was pointless, and offered no room for discussion. A quick read of the posting guidelines (Which I recommend you read, if you haven't) shows that threads are meant to stimulate discussion. There was none there.

OOOOhhhhh. I think it's because that sort of thing goes on forum games and you had it on off topic discussion.

 

[EMFCRACKSHOT]

I have only made one thread that was locked and it was deservedly so as it was redicoulous.In my defence i was wasted when i made it XD
And yes, yours deserved to be locked

 

[Armored Prayer]

Never had my threads locked. Usually my threads generate a lot of discussion.

...no.
I would hope that even in my sanctuary, that kind of thread would not flourish.
Personally, I made only one thread that has been locked, and that was after 230someodd pages, and I think that was because someone was suspended in it.
And in case you have not already, read Baby Tea's reply.
Then keep in in mind.

EDIT:
If you were just curious about that thread, you could just PM a mod about it, rather than make another thread asking why it was locked. Way to try and put some discussion in, though.

An opinion usually comes from discussion.

 

[NeutralMunchHotel]

Zero discussion, and rather spam-filled in the eyes of a fellow forum-goer.

 

[mikecoulter]

Because there was no possible discussion.

 

[esperandote]

yes it was.

 

[DoW Lowen]

Necessary? Yes. Ja. Da. Ga. Wi. Hai. Emgoi. And now I have exhausted all the "yes" in different languages I've had.

EDIT: Betting pool anyone?

Thanks for the information and no I hadn't read it because I typre rather slow and Baby's post wasn't up when I was typing. Also was that 230 page topic reference a not-so-stealthy, stealth brag?

*reads posting guidlines again*

Know I know, and knowing is half the battle!

Maybe.
Just a bit.<color=white>...yes.

And while I was specifically talking to the Original poster, at least you learned something today!

Oh god, my eyes!
