Why was my thread locked?

Grimlock · 05-09-2012, 07:49 PM

Why is it that a thread is locked even though people are being civil to each other?I started that thread to sort out the problems that some members have with me and I have with them. I said stuff that most people are thinking but are afraid to say . Why do mods here try and silence a conversation that has not gtten out of hand? Wow. Way to go. Are we not adults?

The Mods around here do't do anything but abuse their own frakin' power. If I am being civil and trying to discuss something I feel is an issue with this community, why am I being silenced? I am breaking no rules but still this forum protects it's ''high ranking'' members and we who speak the truth are put to the side like garbage. Did I just come out and say I hate this place and everyone here? No. I didn't. But some people I guess get the special treatment and as soon as I try and call them out, my thread gets locked.

Not all the mods, but a select few here just are not very fair.

At least you got guts, Mr. Lock I could have never brought something like that up.

Grimlock is one word. That's like calling someone named Kevin "Mr. Vin".

As for the thread, I agree with who you think isn't funny. A lot.

*ToTheNines* · 05-09-2012, 08:00 PM

Dude just leave if you don't like it here. Don't be a drama queen.

You're just like the rest. You seem to be confused, son. So let me help you out. I started that thread BECAUSE I like this forum and I hate to see it's top ranking members control this place and scare off anyone who doesn't absolutly devote their life to the turtles.

You're still a drama queen.

Because you were being an outright a**hole about it by calling some of the members out like that. It was rude what you said about Gobo, Jester, and the others that you called out. You were't being civil at all the way I read it. So, that's why they locked it. And like Nines said, if you don't like what happens here, just leave. I admit, I've gotten into disagreements with members before, but I'm not going to let that stop me from enjoying this place and the rest of the people here. If you don't want to deal with these people, then just ignore them. Plain and simple.

LeoNerdo · 05-09-2012, 08:12 PM

For starters it was off-topic, having nothing whatsoever to do with TMNT.

If you can't see where a thread like that was heading, calling out members trying to incite an argument, then you are blind. Take it to a PM or something.

The Internet is serious business.

Some new member in that thread agreed that this place can be hostile at times.

If you are that sensitive, use your own advice and don't be affected by my thread. I wanted to confront the problems I have with some people on here, problems that I know for a fact other people have, but I guess some people just can't deal with it on here. I'm not leaving. I'll stick around. Unless of course they ban me, which wouldn't really suprise me now.

You're telling someone that they are too sensitive...in a thread that you created to be overly sensitive...about a thread...that was locked...because you were being overly sensitive.

That just happened.

Oh man, you are a genius. It must be sooo nice to have you buddies on Facebook back you up on this forum. I started that thread to voice my opinion on some things that are wrong on here, but I should've know that you and the other would just blow this off as ''whining''.

My apologies bout the Mr. Lock issue, Grimlock. I kinda got carried away with shortening names sometimes.

It wasn't blown off as whining. It was blown off as mud slinging. Which is was.

Also, thank you for recognizing my genius.

The problem is that you called out specific members and started blasting them. Now, if you wanted to state that you had a problem with certain members but didn't want to name any names, that would've been fine. But you called out the people and used the wrong section as well. You were just being a jerk. I call it like I see it. I'm not being sensitive about anything, I'm just telling you why your thread was locked. Get over it.

When I ''called out'' everyone in that original thread. Was I not speaking truth?

All my ''douch'' posts got pointed out RIGHT AWAY. But everyone else around here who is a jerk to new members never get called out or get in trouble.

Really. Had I not named names, would it not have been locked anyways? Nikka please.

*BubblyShell22* · 05-09-2012, 08:24 PM

No, you weren't. It was merely your opinion on certain people, and you did it in a very rude way, I might add. It was insensitive.
