  • WHAT in the World Happened ?? with that thread

    Why did the "WHAT in the World Happened ??" thread get locked?

    Please send me an PM if national defense secrets involved. It's just odd. It seemed like the thread was already dead.

    I agree. Don't lock it. It would have faded off page one anyways.

      The topic wasn't that sensitive, but maybe thought was info could be useful to a hacker. Hard to figgah.

          Nutz, remember a few days ago I said there was something thick about you?


          Anyway, I think the thread might have been locked to prevent me saying something embarassing about Madtown. (Not that this is the sort of thing I am prone to do.) Maybe not . MAd did a really good job figuring out the problem.

            I liked it, because nothing good was going to come of it. I saw spiteful words coming. The site is back up. The site is back up. I used my best judgement on the matter.

                And it was good judgement. Harlan and I would have been fine; if he was mad at me he'd have just sent that dam blue dog over to hump my wife's leg again. But there was really no reason to have it around anymore. Mazzin at one point suggested zapping the monster thread; we could have done the same with that one.

                  Partial, I don't think it's right to lock threads short of pending holocaust.

                  Well, actually, if an argument really gets raging, probably a good idea to lock it, cool things down without actually censoring. I think you misread that thread, it was about as hot as two old men on a porch arguing over checkers.

                  My paranoid mind thought Mad might have told you to close it, since my tongue was ramblin. The site failed yesterday because of some mods Mad made a while ago to the software. But he did a really good job figuring out the problem and correcting it. I wasn't gonna give him shit about it!

                    I agree. I just don't like the precedence it sets.

                      I really don't agree with zapping threads until they are long dead. For instance, zappin this last one got me to thinking WTF? and coming-up with conspiracy theories. That thread was still warm, human presence only hour ago.

                      edit: whups. Guess this one wasn't zapped, just locked. but same principle.

                      Umm, somebody suggested today erasing the long thread of recent argument. Nah! This is supposed to be no censorship site, at least within some bounds. Should delete stuff unless it is long, long dead.

                        To be honest I don't care enough to argue this point. I trust the mods and would rarely question them. I'm just an easy going kind of guy that does not like it when people start throwing darts at each other.

                          I agree that LOCKING threads is a good idea if things really get heated and ugly. But pre-emptive locking: nah.

                            It doesn't happen often and I don't expect to have to do it again. Perhaps I did misinterpret it, but I did not think it was necessary to keep beating a dead horse. All in well in Packer Rat land
