I started two threads called Nutjobs and Nutjobs II. Where are they?

Also why is the bullies/sociopaths thread locked?

Don't know for sure why they were removed but i can make a pretty good guess based on the name of the threads. "nutjobs" sounds pretty negative to me.

Have to wait for one of the mods to explain I spose. I don't understand why the bullies/sociopaths thread would be locked.

Alas, I suspect they're where all the best threads end up: that big forum in the sky where the grass is green, the seas are blue, and fluffy white bunny rabbits skip in the perpetual morning sun.

I'd be careful you don't disappear there, too...

I'd calm down. You're obviously in the mods' sights, and so you'd do best to leave things and approach the issue more subtly at a later date.

in the mods sights?

for trying to have intelligent conversations?

I don't think so, ascan.

I'd rather use a pay site if it keep trolls out.

I'm dead meat, ascan?

ohhh QM doesn't really strike me as that type of mod.

Although...i couldn't help but notice that one of the trolls who has been disrupting and abusive in my threads is a girl of the same age as QM who also lives in the same state as he.

<raises eyebrows>

Well, my rabble-rousing days here are done, so I won't speculate further on that one, Postperson. But I will say that the situation is not without precedent. :wink:
