Why are threads in this forum locked without response when they raise valid concerns? There were a couple discussions here involving serious complaints about certain members as well as OT in general and now they are all locked with no mod explanation. I don't mean any offense but I'm confused as to what's going on.

In particular, we were discussing useless parody threads, but again feel free to delete this section of my post if the discussion is closed / no longer allowed.

example:

Thanks for the links

Mods will get around to it. Sometimes I wonder if favoristism is involved.


It must be parody thread or some inside ATOT joke.
I don't get this thread at all.

Monster thread

Come on, the Altoids one was awesome. :thumbsup:

OT is 99.9% full of useless posts, so I refuse to see the point in singling out any few threads that aren't obvious no-no's (pr0n, spam, etc)

The first three are parodies. That is being frowned on.

The last thread referenced in nothing but a NEF thread.

Simple answers that did not even seem to deserve a FI thread.
