which thread would you lock on pc?
 
PC needs more risky topics atm

So if you could, which thread would you lock on PC? And why?

It doesn't have to be locked on the grounds of spam or misplacement -- you might just wanna lock it because it annoys you and you know that the world would be a better place without it. The reasoning is unsurprisingly flexible.

I'd lock this thread. I only say that because when it gets locked that person will look predictable and uncreative.

Anything I could in Art & Design, so we can get the Pixel Art subforum back.

Probably anything that pokes at someone's feelings or disabilities, since I am emotionally unstable and I have autism. Threads are not meant to hurt feelings you know.

I never believed in locking threads unless they go so far off course it's impossible to bring them back. At least that was my thinking as a staff member back in the day. I think they should be used as a last resort for when a moderator really can't reel a topic back in if its wandered too far off its path, and even then I think it should be reserved for cases where flame wars are consistent and there is simply nothing of value being said anymore even after warning from the board's moderator.

Even threads that have a simple question that have been answered are threads that I don't think should be locked, because it creates this environment where people feel like they can't offer anything new to anything past the textbook responses to simple questions. I just have a belief that we should create an open environment where if someone has something to add to something then they should be able to do so. Plus it looks more inviting.

The Treehouse DCC thread. Not because it's offensive or anything. But imagine the uproar and chaos.

You little rascal! I love your style. :P

I see some replies here are a bit too serio, aww come on! We're in the treehouse right now! Chill, chill, chill.

So far there's no thread I would lock and Flibby has spoken out the most worthy one to lock anyway!

But there's something else that I need to lock right now, it's our apartment's door! As it's late at night here already.

Berserk. Lmao That obvious yet not so obvious Mewtwo reference.
Gotta lock 'em all, huh? It's tiring to lock them all one by one tho. :P

Spinosaurus July 5th, 2015 8:59 AM

Every single "have you watched/read/played" thread.

Pointless threads and most of the replies by far are "no".

Couple of threads in Treehouse and the same ones Freezer had mentioned.

Palamon July 5th, 2015 9:55 AM

Any thread that has homophobic tendencies in them. They can die.

I don't think I've ever seen a thread on PC that made fun of anyone's disability.

And I haven't saw someone hurting someone elses feelings, but then I don't visit many threads.

Edit: Every thread that isn't started with capital letter. The fuck guys?

Her July 5th, 2015 10:21 AM

Circuit July 5th, 2015 10:53 AM
