3. "RE: Flame Wars:" In response to message #2
Which is why I'm stuck if I should lock it or not..<<<Call me stupid but I cannot for the life of me figure out why you locked the post "Flame Wars".What you did is slam the door in the face of an elderly person who was making a simple point, no flaming involved. Better lock it just in case it gets ugly. Well, you better move to Minnesota, strike that, Wisconsin because the whole left half of the United States is going to fall into the Pacific ocean.I understand you guys are trying to keep a clean house but I think you all might be going a little on the cautious side.Just my $2 worth.Cubs down 6-4 in the 6thBob & O'RileyOops....6-6 in the 6th
I think Mac Probably Locked it because he did not want it to turn into anything that would harm anyone and cause for more trouble . And BTW , I don't think that it's a good Idea to open a post that a Mod Locked .Southern Pacific will live on forever in the hearts of the Red and Gray Railfans
it was locked to prevent one from starting which the post was headed that way. Yep and this post was a bad idea too, it does nothing but re-stir the pot. Flame wars have been flaring up here in the past, and that post started shooting sparks and so mac just hit it with the water hose before it got too big.
I see where this is going, so I am going to go ahead and lock my front door to prevent future flame wars.....Oh wait, she won't be home for several more hours. Chris Bogley chrisb@tailsnrails.com Syracuse New York www.tailsnrails.com
