Only 1 but it was hijacked - I asked a question about memblocks, got my answer from Rich, then Raven & Rich argued about the answer he gave me until Rich eventualy locked it.

I think 0 locks out of over 2300 posts on this forum...

Most people who get their threads locked tend to get a lot of their threads locked, it's because the mods are trying to tell them something and they aren't listening... Thank fully, in a few cases (hopefully yours) a couple of locked threads is at far as it goes.

Two-four on this forum, out of 4500-ish posts, I think. One was hijacked, the others had too volative topics in one way or another.

When a post is locked, it is because there is something innapropriate in it; whether this is the fault of the original posters or the members who replied varies. Usually the mods are also trying to tell a user something, but so many threads are hijacked I'd say that that's only valid about 45% of the time.

When you say posts locked, is that personal posts or others posts that you were involved in the cause of the lock? ^_^;

Hey, JessTicular, you'd better edit your post above. You now have one locked thread. I've never started a thread, so I haven't had any locked.

Yep, I now have one more locked thread lol

Rich and Mods; Sorry about that thread, I never meant to provoke people to try to bypass the swear filter. I just found it amusing that C-M-C was picked up by it.

Everyone else; Let's not talk about that anymore... Instead, let's talk about the benefits of Cheese Cake

Cheese is not a cake ingredient, that would be as foolish as making a cake out of carrot...

As for Australians always boasting that they win at sports, that's only because they only enter a few of them. Britain can take pride in entering just about every sport on the planet, and not winning any of them. Except for the Rugby which of course we dominate.

The Scots kick ass at Curling, Caber tossing, Sheep worrying, and Survival Dentistry .

I like Rugby, I actually enjoyed playing when I was in high school - but pretentious sports like Cricket and Tennis make me retch.

Anyhoo, the topic.

I don't think any of my threads have been banned, not recently anyway - maybe because of some pointless Blitztroll attack ages ago.
