Just dont go ahead and start thinking you are the forum nazi and deleting other peoples thoughts/retorts/arguments. I am fine with locking a thread...it sends a point across. The whole momentum of the post gets stopped real fast. Yes people then start to make topics that relate to the original thread...so what? Let people make clowns of themselves in front of the entire community. Those will get locked too.

Just please stop deleting entire threads. I understand that things got a little out of hand during the holidays when admins were not here...but keeps things in perspective. Many will sign on looking for a reply or just to catch up and wonder why a thread was deleted. Make a post that ends the thread if it is THAT serious and it can describe what it was that was out of line and why it was locked. Then a de-facto "line in the sand" will be drawn for all to see...and to learn from. If they dont want a thread locked...then at least they will have a concrete example of what NOT to do.

The problem is, is that people don't learn, they just keep starting it. Even after massive hospitalizations to send a point across. When the thread is locked, new ones are just started to keep up the antogonizing because they are upset their posts were locked. You can tell someone what NOT to do, do they listen? No, they just continue doing it because they know it really annoys and upsets others.
