Hagar's thread that was locked wasn't a hate campaign.

No one said Hagar's thread was a hate campaign.

No, but he said threads that are will be locked. What part of that aren't you getting?

Perhaps it was a cruel, ironic joke. The thread about thread lock got locked.
If you put a million monkeys at a million keyboards, one of them will eventually write a Java program.
The rest of them will write Perl programs.

Perhaps you could reiterate what this is meant to mean? Both threads I have not mentioned one admin name once or knowingly referenced any TDC member.
The whole point of this is to try and make TDC a better place.

I have to concede I didn't really see anything wrong with the previous thread so I, along with the others are not sure why it was locked in the first place. Maybe whoever locked it could see a potential argument develop, as although you didn't reference any admin, one person did , and maybe this was a reason to stop it potentially spiralling out of control.
I can understand you wanting to make TDC a better place but you can't improve on perfection
Nah, I jest, we're trying to lay down some new foundational rules so this kind of thing doesn't keep happening.

It is this pre-emptive judgemental policy towards moderation that has got people annoyed. Firstly it has been assumed Chris = Chris Street, secondly it has been assumed that this would spur the conversation into a Circy bashing rant (it was carrying on about socks!). Thirdly, if there are no apparent problems why has the thread not been re-opened?
Even if it is reopened I still want my questions answered. The truth is out there!

Isn't it obvious? The admins don't want to get thread lock on their hands.

Not sure if I can add anything which hasn't been said already, like a putting a reason in the thread why it has been locked.
And something a long story which I am not going to post but it comes down to: community and respect.

I think the admins are hoping this will sink and die

I was starting to wonder about this too. At least one of our admins doesn't have much respect for the members of this community

There are no more updates to be had thus far. I think we already said that Flava moved Dogzer's stuff to a new account. That way, once his ban is over he'd have an account, but we still don't know how he got deleted in the first place.

Yes yes, but this thread was not about some horseface deleting Dogzer. This is about maybe the same person locking a harmless thread
