Do you ever flip through the pages just to look for locked topics, and look at those topics?

I have from time to time, but I usually only read the body of the thread starter, and the text by moderator if any, and of course if it catches my interest, I look into it further.

Obvious Question, why do look for Locked topics, and you can't even see the text if that person in question has been blacklisted.

I remember when I used this space to put cool looking links to my chapters back in the day. I don't even know why I'm using it now. Why are you even reading this? You must be interested in me. Still reading?

I enjoy looking at the sometimes harsh responses that the mods leave before they lock the thread.

It may be surprising, but threads that the thread starter are blacklisted are really a minority, and besides that fact you usually can find a quote box of what was "removed" in the thread. And as far as why I look for them? I guess I like to see human behavior, and even get glimpses of the "underground."

You people have just sent my sides into orbit. A bunch of MLG try hards sucking the dick of some supposed pro half the thread hasn't even heard of. Classic.

I wish some forum goers would look at them and read them. They just might save themselves time by not writing a post that will get locked. Of course I believe the new topic button is too tempting for them to push instead.

Yes, but normally only if they're to do with certain subjects that are of interest to me.

Why don't you just give me ONE SECOND!

I sometimes do, just to see if there is a witty reply from a mod which usually gives me a 5 second laugh, then I go back to normal... If there's no reply by a mod, I usually don't check it out... unless it's a topic that I'm interested in.

If we lay down Claymores here and here... and then run the trip wires along there... maybe put IR sensors along the edge of the gulch...

Or give it a tooltip that says, "They're all going to laugh at you!"
