What makes a moderator LOCK up a site? I am curious. There was someone who questioned who would make WWE figures better Hasbro or Mattel and it was locked. I like both companies and am glad Mattel has it but not sure why that topic would get locked? The Kotr Bret Hart figure post is hysterical. In fact, I enjoyed what the moderator said there and found it funny and informative but why lock it? Now it will go away. I did a HOPEFUL SIGN (positive post) about Mattel making The Red Rooster and what potential that meant for other Legends and it was going strong and then was locked?  I simply don't understand it perhaps a Moderator can enlighten me. Thank you |

A number of different things. If there is fighting, it gets locked. If nothing of value is able to be added, it’s worth locking. If it’s spam and just non sense again worth locking up. It’s to keep the site clean and running smooth without fights and such. It’s not because we don’t like someone or anything like that. If there are threads already about a subject it could also be locked

I simply don't understand it perhaps a Moderator can enlighten me. Thank you The Hasbro vs. Mattel thread is no different than bringing up Jakks on a Mattel board - it will only lead to bad things for those of us that have to moderate the discussion. I don't want to clean up all of that mess for a thread that honestly wouldn't be worth saving. The KOTR Bret thread is funny in a way but it could also open the floodgates for people wanting to jump on the spamwagon, and again I'd rather not encourage it for too lengthy of a time. forum.wrestlingfigs.com/thread/351242/hopeful-signAs for the Rooster thread, I'm not sure if I was the one to lock it but my guess is there had to be a reason. Was it made during the time of a toy show when most discussion happens in the official thread and not on the regular board? It could've been because of the talk of who's done what in the adult film industry, but I doubt it. I really don't remember the circumstances surrounding that one. If you have any questions or concerns, or if you would like to suggest something that you think will make for a better experience on the board, feel free to reach out via PM and discuss it with me any time. |
