Locked topics

Recommended Posts

I noticed a locked topic just a moment ago.  I don't recall seeing that action taken before here on this site.  I just wanted to say that I appreciate the overall forebearance of the moderators here.  You all exercise more restraint than I could musteer.

Seems as if there's a very small, almost dwarf-like, subset of toxic posters here that are much more prone to having their threads locked or deleted. Probably because they are incapable of actual discussion and are slaves to their own idiocy.

Not where I was going with my comment, but threads do take on a life of their own.

It's not uncommon. It happens when the dooshery spirals out of control.

There is no coincidence this happens here lately with the influx of refugees. Some of those guys have a history

It is entirely possible it occurs more frequently than I have noticed.

What people fail to realize is it's not rhe topics nor the person who starts them, it's the liberal inbred hatred that follows.

I would have no metrics to confirm or refute your statement.

Which thread are you referring to?

There are problems on both sides of the aisle...  Some users just try to be a "shock jock", but that schtick is so old, that it is just childish...

Point out all the "locked threads" and make a case from there. Else...who cares? Don't you dare talk race or how hot a woman is vs. another woman.

It’s happened but it’s rare. Usually the threads just disappear.

The mods here are really hands off. If a thread is deleted that’s almost certainly on the thread poster.

No, you're completely backwards on this, especially with hands off moderation by definition (none or very little rules) .

It's most certainly on the people pushing the report button.  Grown men ought to be capable of discussing any topic.  Clearly some are not.

These guys keep trying to push they don't rat. But it's their way of trying to take focus on the site.

They come with a track record. I will say rabid TDSers the general & dozer are outliers and don’t participate in this odious behavior , kudos to them.

Only Mike FFT can say why some threads are removed and others stay. But I’ve been here for many years and rarely see threads get locked or removed. So if a Geek has many threads locked or removed, that Geek should probably start with the man in the mirror.

Its a nice day here.  i think I will go for a ride and then maybe a paddle.

Hey, if you are into getting spanked, who am I to criticize?

Hope I don't get this thread locked!  :o

You're still not following along.  Why does the poster looking in the mirror have so many threads reported in a forum of grown ass men?

If it were heavily moderated, with a bunch of rules, then yeah look in the mirror.  But you admit that's not the case.

I've often wondered, does Mike sometimes delete threads or does he only lock them?  It seems unlikely that all of the "deleted" threads were peenied by the thread starter.

And if he does sometimes delete them, what thought process goes into deciding between the two actions?  🤔

Maybe that Geek has established himself as the forearm problem child? Maybe that Geek has peenied multiple threads and falsely claimed that Mike deleted them and the mods took exception to it? Maybe that Geek is universally loathed and even Mike FFT hates him?

I really can’t say.

Two of those things involve regular moderation, which you said wasn't the case.  The first thing are grown ass men acting like children, including the tattletales.

I just read the locked thread on page 1 and, meh, it doesn't seem to me to rise to the level of lock-worthy.

I suspect that some of our refugees have a bit of a quick trigger finger on the "report" button, given the moderation they were accustomed to.

mdc rats people out then comes out and says he didn't do it. It's the liberal formula. They do in mass, what they say you shouldn't do.

By “moderation” I meant very few suspensions, locked threads etc. For all I know Mike is here watching all day every day.

Tim and Squidward were both in the thread. They probably heavily reported it in their continuing effort to make this the FBG PSF 2.0 and silence patriot voices. 
 

My cousin said that was their MO

The assumption said poster seems to be making is that “liberals” did the reporting, but it’s worth noting that almost everyone here seems to agree he’s a terrible poster.  And my bet is the most reporting overall has been done by digby, of course not a liberal. Although he likely wasn’t involved in the most recent thread being locked.

I purposefully didn’t open that thread. Was pretty obvious where it was going to go with the usual suspects here

Triggered liberals always at the center of whining.

It’s amazing how a small group of people could kill one site, move to another site and do the same things, then wonder why the same things that happened at the old site are happening at the new site. 
If every PSF user who came here after the other forum was closed would leave, there would be no reporting, locked threads or petty bickering in every topic. Can’t you all just go to Reddit?

This is categorically false, unless digby was a PSF user.

I imagine Reddit political pages have tons of posters and these clowns wouldn't get the same level of attention they seek on a daily basis
