I'm the OP whose thread you locked. I have no idea why. I dare you to find anything in my post that is "off base" or offensive. There was NO warning. It was just locked.CompVest wrote:Threads are locked due to rule violations or content that is just too far off base. When I lock a thread generally if you check the posts you will see warnings being given and not being heeded. Yes, any posts that are offensive will have been removed. Offensive posts are generally personal attacks by members against another member.
Basically if I were to post a reason for locking a thread, it would be something like "This thread is locked due to violation of Forum rules." Very generic.
Please don't try to go toe to toe with a mod - it's just no polite. My threads have frequently been subject to moderation...it doesn't hurt my feelings. I know that many times what I'm conveying is not what I intended, and if I'm short in a thread in can be perceived as rude or attacking. I'm thankful for the guys (gender neutral term) that keep me on my toes.Griffen wrote:I'm the OP whose thread you locked. I have no idea why.

. Oh well, back to the garage for me....The thread that got locked was a duplicate of another thread that was already running. if you look at the 1st response, someone had posted a link to the already running thread. We do try to keep duplication of discussions down to a minimum so that all involved can share in that one thread and have one place to discuss.Griffen wrote:i just want to know what went wrong.

Thanks Keith! That was helpful insight. I appreciate you taking the time to 'splain. Some of us may be newer (or slower) than others. I'm sure most poster neither want to, or intend to, violate the rules - including myself. But not knowing the reason a thread was locked is not productive for anyone, especially for learning purposes. Again - much appreciatedKeith B wrote:The thread that got locked was a duplicate of another thread that was already running. if you look at the 1st response, someone had posted a link to the already running thread.
