Come on guys

The Mods are doing too much work here and too many good threads are getting closed for being in the wrong section. There have been a ton recently that I would have liked to comment on but they are getting closed.

PLEASE pay attention to what you are posting and where.

Having said this, this one may get closed too.

To human is to error, and we must be penalized for our sins.

Now go to the penalty box for 3 minutes to reflect.

It's to many people coming over here from THR.

Yung_gunr,

Your post is applicable to all forums so this should have been posted in the General Discussion Forum, not the General Handgun Forum.

With any and all respect due (and I do understand their desire to keep things organized), this forum locks and deletes more threads than any I've ever visited.

A few times I've had threads get locked just when they were getting interesting, and I don't mean getting out-of-hand. Alas, they were not my threads, and it's not my board, so no point in concerning myself about the why's of it.

Anytime I start worrying too much about internet forums locking or deleting threads, I figure it's time to turn off the 'puter, and head into the hills for some fresh air.

Actually, the post is most applicable to the handgun forums, so it's good right here. The kind of problems that we were having in the handgun forums, especially the General Handgun Forum, were pretty much non-existent in other forums here.

People not paying attention to where they're slinging threads was an epidemic several weeks ago. Now it's a trickle.

The recent "Pretty Much Zero Tolerance Policy" has had the effect that I and my fellow mods have wanted, i.e., getting posts in the right place the first time so that TFL maintains its status as not only a great discussion board, but a great repository of firearms information.


"this forum locks and deletes more threads than any I've ever visited."

Not to cast aspersions at other forums you've visited (especially since I don't know what they are), we try to maintain rather high standards at TFL, standards first envisioned and laid down by TFL's Founder, Rich Lucibella.

Are we always successful? Nope.

Do all of our members agree with how we operate things here? Nope.

Does that mean that we're going to change? Not unless Rich wants us to.

So, all that said, closed.
