When you are meandering through the forums, are you more inclined to see what is in a locked thread? If so, why?

Also, what is the most interesting response you have seen a ninja give to a locked thread?

Brownie lives!

"10000?"

No. It's usually locked because it's off-topic. (At least in the community.)

Per Audacia Ad Astra

I like to check the OP and see how they broke the rules, unless the title is enough evidence to justify the locking of the topic.

I'm always interested in it if I see that the last post was by a ninja. They often have witty reasons for the lock.

For those who wish to contact me on Xbox LIVE, my main account is "The 7th Taco", and the one linked with my profile here is only a backup.

Do you like Green Eggs and Ham???

Only if the title suggest World Flamewar III or trolling.

  • 11.20.2012 2:01 PM PDT

Key

If I can't tell by the title that it was clearly in the wrong forum, yes.

Like Other people have said if I can't tell by the title I might poke my head in to see what went down. I don't do it all the time though.

Yes, especially if a mod is the last post in the thread.

Especially evilcam, he always posts a snarky remark before he locks threads.

If you're passionate about the thing you're talking about, I'll always lend an ear.

I hate contributing into a thread, right when I go in for the kill, it gets locked.

But when Ninjas give a response/contribution to it beforehand and it isn't locked, I see that as precedence that the thread is a-okay. Then I get somewhat baffled when it gets locked later down the line.

The recent thread I was in, I understand why it was locked. But damn. I really wanted to give a response to that stupid last comment!

;(

Oh yeah, since somebody does not believe what YOU believe; that makes us vapid...
I cannot grasp that what you call "Something happened to nothing, and that nothing became something, and it was smaller than than a period."

Well they're usually locked for a bad reason, so no.

  • 11.20.2012 3:14 PM PDT

Yeah, I usually click it just see whats inside.

  • 11.20.2012 3:42 PM PDT

The tide is turning, brothers! Let us take our kingdom back!

Usually, yeah. Curiosity killed the cat and what not, you know?

PS
No, I do not want to join your clan/group.

I like to browse through it and see how just how stupid it ended up getting before finally earning the lock.

Who am I?

mah twitter

Not really, most times it's just a blatant troll thread, not worth my time.

  • 11.21.2012 4:42 AM PDT

I will occasionally have a look to see what was being discussed.

Dear tomorrow, Find some sensibility, Respond to emotion.
Dear Politician, Define sagacity,
All chances of survival are beginning to diminish.
Comedy is no excuse for our own blasphemies.
Mass media, Mass pessimism, Mass Denial.
My television tells me to panic, but I don't think I'll listen.
The apathetic force us to persevere, with their backwards priorities.

Foman and his condescending reasons.

And so the war of Gods and Demons shall begin. Tomorrow will end with your heart in my hand!

Love ya! =3

I wouldn't say that I'm more interested, but I'm still interested. I usually like to check and see how the OP broke the rules. Or how the last poster responded to it, especially if they were a ninja.

Odd. This thread nearly dies then I hit Mythix again. Proof of public opinion? Perhaps.

On topic, Foman certainly does have a way about him that has caused many an inferiority complex, doesn't he?

  • 11.21.2012 10:00 AM PDT

hmm

Always curious to check why the thread was banned.

  • 11.22.2012 6:28 AM PDT

Ugh...

First on a BWU.. yeah, I'm cool.

ODST;MYTHIC Screenshot winner! One of the first to get their hands on the mythic map pack.

While scrolling the flood yes. I usually to see if a ninja justified why they are locking a thread, or to see what obvious trolling could possibly going on, or how rampant the thread got.
