I consider my self to be a polite and respectable forum goer but I can't understand why some of those threads are being locked. I have nothing but respect for the mods. Some of them are pretty cool. Now it seems that any thread that makes the smallest complaint about Halo 2 gets locked. I understand that Bungie makes the rules here but it looks as if threads that are providing nothing more than constructive criticism or suggestions for Halo 3 are getting locked. Has anyone else noticed this?

I realize that this isn't the case for all the threads. Many of the locked threads are spam and a few critsizing threads remain open. It's just a few here and there that I don't think should have been locked. I'm not trying to start anything I just want to point this out.

Devil is Double is Deuce and Joker always trumps Deuce.

Well, in one of the locked threads I saw, some moron dug up a spam thread that had been dead for 8 months and told perma-banned members that if they wanted to spam, go to the Flood.

Most forums have unique rules and the thread probably went out of bounds and they locked it. Most of them are Halo related because it is like a 50\50 split of people who like it and those who don't so fights get started in the thread.

What about this one?

We’ve watched while the stars burned
Out, and creation played in reverse.
The Universe freezing in half-light.
Once I thought to escape.
To end a master, step out of the
Path of collapse. Escape would make us God.
Yet I cannot help but remember one enigma,
A hybrid, elusive destroyer.
This is the one mystery I have not solved.
The only element unaccounted for.

The biggest reason I can think of is that it was bumped from three days back, which is about page 50 in New Mombasa. But I agree, that one should not have been locked.
