Locked Threads?

FishNChips · #1 06-13-2005, 01:05 PM

2 questions:

First the General : How and why do threads get locked?

Second, the specific : How and Why was the "why men leave their wives" thread locked? At some point over the weekend I was requested to turn in my testicles - I thought I'd respond that I'd prefer to keep them, but the thread is locked. What did I miss?

What's the over/under on how many replies before this one gets locked?

I don't care if it gets locked, I'd just like to understand WHY?

F&C

Dynasty or wacki lock them. i thought hey were only locking threads that were reposts of existing threads or were basically just started to slam another poster. I'm not sure why that one would have been locked. it seemed like a pretty good thread.

1) REPEAT POSTS
2) advertisements -banned
3) threads about other posters (i.e. XXXXX is a [censored] face thread)

Thanks Wacki...
I just wish it had been locked before my testicles were taken...

That's what I thought. And as I recall, Dynasty went out of his way say those would be the only ones he'd lock. But we do seem to be seeing quite a few locked that don't meet those criteria.
