Poll: Do you feel drawn to reading locked threads?

[TheGreatCoolEnergy]

Locked threads mean something was ignorant or contriversal enough to be censored, which means I need to see it

 

[AdhesiveTape]

Well, a ten car pile-up is the most interesting thing on the highway. Not to call the Escapist forums a highway or anything...

 

[Contun]

Yeah, I'm curious to see why it has become locked.

But then again, if it's a locked thread, do I really want to know?

 

[CrysisMcGee]

Well i've had 2 of my own threads locked. Never make that mistake again. So yes, I do read locked threads.

 

[Agent Larkin]

Usually because they are so stupid its funny.

 

[SomethingUnrelated]

I'm curious to find out why they're locked, aside from being able to take a good guess. That's it really.

 

[Sassafrass]

Just to see what sort of ranting it is. Halo, CoD, badges or just "Blah" I have to go and check it out.

 

[littlequietguy]

Of course. I helps me get a bigger understanding of the rules and etiquette of the forum. For all I know I could be braking some unwritten rule right now.

 

[trebach]

If it's pretty obvious why it got locked, I'll ignore them. Otherwise it's a cautionary tale.

Shadenfroid (or however its spelled).

It's schadenfreude.

 

[TaborMallory]

Yes, for just about every reason that has been listed here. I also can't help but read the posts that invoked mod wrath.

 

[A Weary Exile]

Yes but not to see the OP behave like a moron, I like to see when our level-headed escapees put trolls in their place.

 

[Crossborder]

I'm some kind of a disaster tourist. These things are interesting.

 

[MusicalFreedom]

yes, because I freakin love it when people keep posting "report and move on" without actually doing so. they are The Best Threads.

 

[Souplex]

I read the first five posts and then the last post to see if the mod said something funny.

 

[The Great JT]

This thread will be more interesting once it's locked.

 

[Cakes]

and ofcouse the ocasional 360 > Wii > Commandore 64 > Pc > Mac > Ps3 threads, god I hate those.

360 > Commodore 64 my ass.

And yes, I usually do read locked threads, if the title is something serious and is not obviously spam. Just like how I usually can't resist seeing why someone was banned or suspended.

 

[Akai Shizuku]

Yes. I'd like to see what excuse the mod had for closing it and of course the fabulous lack of reasons provided in post.
