Should you be expecting a pizza delivery shortly? :shrug:

1. Are you asking for a theoretical friend or someone other than yourself?

5. Someone got a thread locked and won't quit posting new threads complaining about it?

That might do it. Choose your battles.

7. No, that one was just going off like mad.
They were posting trollish thread after trollish thread; pro Rush Limbaugh, pro Republican, all sorts of weird pro right wing OPs by one poster.

3. You'd think, but it doesn't always work out that way.
Like when someone has had way too much to drink or smoke or some other reason, and they go off like mad in just one night like that, they sometimes get off the hook for it. I've noticed that.

I saw what you were talking about. It was unfrigginbelievable.

6. No, not unless you've broken serious rules.
Three of four threads MIGHT have been locked because they deteriorated into little flame wars without there having been an overt effort to offend.

Also, a member MIGHT get a little message from a moderator, a warning, as it were.

Hell, I could probably think of four or five stoopid OPs I could post right now that would get locked but I'd still be here.

But I won't... :evilgrin:

9. Yeah, the mods have mucho restraint
The person hasn't done anything blatantly obvious, but it's not hard to tell what's going on there with a new member, low post count and several 'provocative' OPs :hi:

12. there was a theme there...
Hiya Peggy! :hi:

Except for the Church question, the posts seem to ask to what degree there may be a double-standard; Condi Rice, Obama vs Rush, and whats-his-name chosen to head the RNC.

Poorly executed, but I can kinda see how these could come blurting out.

Don't know much about the member's history of posts or commentary.

:shrug:

Hiya NYC_SKP! :hi:
