If you don't follow the rules or you post inane drivel your threads will get locked.It doesn't matter if you are unhappy about it.
There are all sorts of forum members who never have their threads locked or they only get locked when they are old threads and someone bumps them or something like that.
I don't wake up every day going "Gee,I hope I get to lock threads today".I'd rather not.
The original poster of this thread got mad because after his thread got locked he posted another breaking the same rule and it got locked too.
We don't do team requests.Everybody that has posted in this thread knows it.It's not a big secret.
There are a lot of good reasons for it but I won't bore you with them...TGC had a team request forum at one time.They don't have one any more.
If someone feels that I locked their thread and it is unfair they can e-mail me.From time to time I have unlocked threads.I am a reasonable person.
I'll leave this thread open and let everybody express what they think or how they feel as long as it doesn't get out of hand or violate the AUP.
