Is it me or does it seem like everyone is yelling at everyone for the tiniest reasons lately?

Did my Obama is a Skrull thread get deleted for, "political content" or because it was just plain stupid?

Anything about a presidential candidate, even something in jest, can wind up down a wrong road, so we kinda just nip them out before that can happen. And also so no one can ask why one stayed but another didn't.

If you delete your cookies, history, files, then it will also log you out. I never do any of this. :/

Sometimes a reboot will automatically do it for you.

Question...
Would it be against the rules to put some of the lyrics to "Bitchin' Camero" by the Dead Milkmen in my signature?

Reason for locking the chat thread? I am not a mod but I' m pretty sure they' ve been forbidden because it eventually led to just half a handful of people posting random stuff to inflate their post count.

It's no different than any other thread that doesn't amount to much like rate the sig, avie, or anything else. Hell, when the board stables were around nobody stopped to bother then when they were hijacking threads which was far worse. To this day I'll never understand the fierce hate people have for the chats. And no, I never was a chatter.

Besides, I don't remember the gazillion threads run by the Thread Pirates getting locked. But the real travesty here was the last quote in the thread: "Who allowed this?" Who allowed what? People to talk?

I've only seen about 20 different tournaments since I joined. It's also near impossible to spam on a board with 15 seconds minimum between posts. Seriously, what's the big deal about post counts again? You think on a board of mostly adult men, the first thing they think about is getting a lot of posts? This isn't a board for 10 year olds. Only use I have for my postcount is so I can make a measure of how far back certain things were (I tend to record my posts at certain numbers in order to type that in at the "View posts" thing to read old threads). That's about it though.

Actually, I'm betting it was more due to the length than anything else.

Length? It was only 28 pages. Isn't the limit 30?

I believe there was also a comment the last time there was a chat thread about how that was a one time only deal and that they were not planning on bringing it back. Then of course it came back last night. By the way for anyone reading this. That 30 page limit thing is basically subjective. It just depends on when we decide to lock it and start a new one if needed.

Is it me or has the board had some bad slowdown problems in the last 2 days?
