A simple question

[stamm]

I am kinda New Hear, i just posted a new thread, i came back to check on it, and it said it was locked..
and it would not allow post, why does this happen? was it something i did?

If you post a thread that is either outside the scope of forum you are posting in (i.e. posting something about cheese while in the highly technical forum) or innapropriate (posting porn links or posting about where to warez software, etc), they will locked.

The mods rarely give a reason for locking. Its entirely up to their discretion.

Edit: I just saw your thread. It was locked because you made inappropriate racial slurs. What's with the beloved patriot crack?

Yes, it was inappropriate apparently... probably because you used 'towel heads'. No need to use racist remarks.

Yawp, then again, I've had threads get locked for what seems to be no reason at all

 

[stamm]

thanks for the info, didnt know exactly what was going on,,,,,

but thanks again

 

[stamm]

how do i contact the Mods?

Via email. Don't even bother complaining about your locked threads; your comments were clearly out of line and will not be tolerated here.
