Poll question: So, how often do you post something outrageous enough to get
it L*****? I am a newbie, and have had 4 so far, 1 of which was a s** thread on it's own (sort of), 2 of which were copycats that were s** threads, and one was commenting on one of the other threads(did not know it was against the rules). All were here in the Lounge, go figure. That averages out to about one every 600 posts...

3. I voted Other b/c I posted a response to somebody's post once
that apparantly pushed her buttons so intensely that she absolutely went OFF on me with a personal viscious attack, telling me she was putting me on "ignore" among other things, and it completely out of the blue. It was shocking, truly. Others actually posted in response to HER response to me, telling her to chill out, etc and, very soon afterwards, not only did her attack response post to me get fully deleted, but the entire thread, itself, was locked.

So that's what I thought of when I saw your poll question. The whole experience was really quite bizarre.

Other than that, though, I don't think I've EVER had a thread I've personally started get locked. And like you, I am a relative newbie.

:hi:

4. I've posted IN threads that eventually ended up locked,
but I've never been the cause of the lock or personally started a thread that ended up locked.

7. It's funny. As I was originally writing this, I wanted to add an
nt. to the line above, but suddenly I could not write anymore on that one, so I posted it. I still can't edit it at all, though the editing window lets me in. And the thread is not L***** or anything. Weird...

10. I haven't had any locked.
I've had one deleted outright, but I don't want to talk about that. :)

11. I don't think I've ever had a thread locked. I've had some posts deleted
and some sub-threads deleted, but I can't remember ever having one of my threads locked.
