Locked posts?
#11
[quote kentofnsl]For various reasons:
1) Personal attacks, one right after another
2) Banned users coming back with new usernames and trying to cause the moderators grief

Be aware that many times a member only sees the "cleaned up thread" that has been locked, but never sees the posts that were deleted or sees what was edited. Believe me, I would prefer to never have to lock a thread, but if we didn't the forum would quickly become out of control. If you happened to see Doug Miller's old forum or the old Utah Fish Finder forum you know what I am talking about.[/quote]

The reality is that you and other moderators have always been too quick to delete/edit posts and way too quick banning people on this site. I have long felt that this site would be much better if debates were allowed to be played out and often posts are edited that really shouldn't be (editing a post, for example, that you simply think is "dumb" is probably overstepping what your designed post is supposed to do or be). I liken the moderators over here to the cop who just itches to write tickets--sure, they have the right and power to do so, but sometimes their decisions are made simply because they have the power instead of on common sense and logic. Some of the more recent "moderations" to threads have been nothing short of silly and/or dumb...!

And, for saying so....I might be edited and banned! Because, heaven knows, you don't question moderators over here...!
