Have you ever had a thread locked? Why? Did you feel it appropriate?

1. yep/nope n/t

[Screaming Lord Byron]

2. Yeah.

'Does the word offend fuck you'. A copycat thread. I deserved it.
I alerted on another one I started, about the I/P forum to give the mods a chance to judge it. So they locked it. Fair enough.

[belladonna]

3. Not yet, but give me time

As to whether it'll be appropriate, I'll just bet it will be :)

[La Lioness Priyanka]

4. sex thread

i am sure it was appropriate

[ElsewheresDaughter]

5. yes..i got over it

[ohiosmith]

7. How long did it take to get over? Did you get professional help?

[liberalitch]

6. Locked reply....

I got really nasty to someone who was Anti-Israel.... I know that many people on this site are anti-israel.... so it was probably appropriate.

NOTE: Just because I am Pro-Israel does not mean I am Anti-Palestinian.... I depise Israel's state sanctioned murder of ANYONE. No omlet requires those kinds of eggs.

[Screaming Lord Byron]

8. Not that I want to wade into that fight.

But I see so many people saying DU is pro-Israel, and an equal number saying it's anti-Israel. That's one of the reasons I stay out of I/P, no common-ground. If I went down there, I'm sure my number of locked posts would rise exponentially.

[liberalitch]

11. Exactly....

that's why I didn't question the appropriateness of the lock.

[Screaming Lord Byron]

14. Yep. You're a brave soul to post down there.

:scared:

[MuseRider]

9. Yes

only one. It was very appropriate, I was very angry at the time I posted it. I got over it, it happens.

[madrchsod]

10. yes and only

in i/p -it`s a mine field ,you never know when you`ll step on one....

[Melsky]

12. No

I'm so darned boring!

[KinkyDem]

13. Yes/guess/probably

I've also had threads locked that I thought it was inappropriate. I don't start many threads these days.

[Shananigans]

16. Ah...so YOU'RE the tattletale!

;)

[Commendatori]

15. No

I'm just a guest here, I'm new and haven't been able to contribute yet. I've only started one thread and wouldn't question moderator policies even if I had been here for a while - they volunteer time that I don't have to spare.

17. You can start a thread BOD. You don't have to be

a donor to start a thread. :-)

[NoPasaran]

18. Yeah.

I was being a smartass. I was proud to finally have one locked. I worry about being a goody twoshoes.

[ohiosmith]

19. Maybe there should a "smart-ass" board.

[NoPasaran]

21. I'm not sure about that

It could lead us back to GD2004

[Kellanved]

20. Yes/ít turned into a BBQ/somewhat

It was a LBN thread about the upcoming D-day memorial day.
It was used by an disruptor with the "Frenchmen were / are Nazis" line; the flamewar (over one hundred replies) got the thread locked, despite the topic being LBN.

[ZenLefty]

22. All of my threads end up locked.

Every single one. They fall off the page and end up in the archives, where they are locked. :pout:

[bhunt70]

23. Yes, recently I asked which DU topic got the people the most antagonistic.

[TrogL]

24. sex threads, rattling cages

Sometimes I go over the top. You've got to push limits once in awhile.

I'll back off when I get a few more demerits (I think I've only got two)(how do you tell??)

[Screaming Lord Byron]

25. They don't hand them out anymore.

[ohiosmith]

26. Thank God. I'd be screwed.

[Screaming Lord Byron]

27. Tell me about it!

[geniph]

28. Shit, in order to get one of my threads locked,

someone would first have to notice they existed, and maybe even respond.

:nopity:

o, poor pitiful me!

[Tweek]

29. You were way out of line.

I didn't like your parody thread. Made me sick.

[ohiosmith]

30. Take a couple of aspirin and call me in the morning. Oh by the way,

I'll need payment in advance.

[Tweek]

31. I'll tell you what you can do to your aspirin...

but I don't want to get banned.

I'm glad you think harassment is something to joke about. :eyes:

[ohiosmith]

32. I'm sorry that you have been so profoundly affected.
