    Locking them. The beauty of this board was always that it was unmoderated and anything went. Now Tobes has decided that is changing and certain subjects, like terrorism, are no go areas and threads will be locked if we try to talk about them.


    Welcome to North Korea.

    Do the majority of contributors want the PL board to be overrun with threads about politics/terrorism/religion? It’s bad enough that Tiny Tears introduces the subject of Islamic terrorists to every thread he posts on. Surely it’s best if the subjects are restricted to the abortion of the Animal Farm thread? There’s also the thread on GC that’s dedicated to monitoring how many people have been stabbed in London.

    We had one thread where terrorist incidents could be put. Just like there's one thread for politics. I think it had over 80 pages so clearly it had been used and nobody was complaining about it.

    This board has always run itself because anything went. Now we are told what we can and can't talk about. Meh.

    I would support your request for a terrorism thread if it meant all posts about terrorism were restricted to that thread.

    It’s a bit annoying when a discussion about potato salad is directed towards a rant about Islamic extremism.

    Did you have the same issue when DMD was trying to make this board some sort of homage to UKIP?

    It hadn’t been used for 2 months, then you posted this on it to bump it.

    Serious discussion? Right oh.

    I have to agree with Saffy on this one. The beauty of the PL board was the fact it wasn't modded in that way - threads locked, thread bans etc. If you don't like the topic stay off the thread.

    How can you lock threads but keep animal farm open? Its either all or nothing, not some subjective view about what people can discuss ffs.

    I don't use animal farm as it doesn't interest me in the slightest. But closing some threads and leaving that abomination open is massive double standards.

    Kind of the opposite of why this board exists <confused>

    I totally understand cleaning up porn and blatant racism (casual racism is fine <whistle>), but choosing what people can discuss? **** this.

    He can post about it in that single politics thread if he wishes, it didn’t need a separate thread, which hadn’t been used for 2 months anyway.

    Those who don’t use it cry about it, and now cry when all of that kind of **** is being kept in one place.

    Whatever.

    So what if it's not a serious discussion?

    There's threads out there that aren't serious. If I tag you in them you'll lock them right?

    Or can you at least give us a rulebook about what meets your standards? I'm being serious.

    Let's be honest. You closed that thread because Duncan dared to use the word 'Pakistani'

    That's random. What does that have to do with anything?

    The real beauty of this thread is that hyperbole is permitted to run riot.

    Don’t try and tell me why I closed it when I’ve already explained exactly why I did.

    If you don’t agree with the decision I made, then we can agree to disagree on this occasion.

    I just wondered, as you seem against censorship, which i am too, what you thought of the current government's attempts to do just that, not just pornography but actually snooping at what we do online.
