As this type of thread always gets lots of reads, this is a good place to post this--

Please lay off the racially incendiary topics (not this thread author--everyone), as it's gotten very old and the "big hammer" is going to fall. Stirring the pot at a time like this is not needed and is helping nothing--and is not going to be tolerated further. Our Mods are not babysitters and the rules have not changed here.

I had a half-dozen or so last night. The mods are locking a) random hurricane threads, and b) any thread that contains a comment that is less than warm & fuzzy or might be construed as less than politically correct.

So to be clear.... There is looting going on and we on a gun/survivalist forums should not talk about LOOTING? Looting that is happening AS WE SPEAK? All because a few posters post things in those threads that the board does not like?

Actually if you want to post about LOOTING, why not use one of the OTHER FIFTEEN LOOTING THREADS that are already active in GD?

Not my point, But I am, thank you.

Point being is that threads and topic starters are once again being held responsible for actions the mods find objectional to the C.O.C. instead of the individuals WITHIN the thread. The threads are being locked when 90% of said thread contains non violating posts. Ruins talk of a LEGITAMATE real world topic that just might affect you someday......

IBTL.
That seems to be the second or third response to just about every thread I read. I thought I would try it. I have to say, it really wasn't that much fun. Am I missing something?

I have 0 locked threads.

Instead of locking threads that are almost entirely non-objectionable, why not just edit out the CoC-violating posts and issue temporary bans of the individuals posting? As was said above, why punish all of the innocent posters in a thread for the acts of the very few?

I'm not a mod, but it seems to me that it's easier to stop the entire thread than it is to edit 10 COC violations.

If nothing else, there are plenty of nearly identical threads elsewhere. Not every slight variance of a thought deserves it's own thread.

Because that takes more time--lots more. We are not babysitters. As it's the same few (mostly) who are doing it, I have taking to locking threads and accounts. The problem will clear up shortly.

Was my little post that incendiary? To me it was a what if SHTF in YOUR AREA due to the activities in NO. Mods Locked it so fast my head spun 360! We all know that the rioting can spread almost instantly due to the digital/mass media info dissemination....so whats the problem?

3 for me.

Maybe the "mods" should consider getting getting a real job. I don't fly with the whole "we are the internet police" shit. Must really be some sexually frustrated individuals.

THat sgtar15 goofball calls another guy a "slant eyed asain cunt" but someone posts the word "blacks" in their post and it gets locked. I quess its a privatly owned site and I really dont give a shit what happens on it, but it's really ignorant sometimes.

and all that shit.
