There have been nine threads locked in the past few weeks, one by me, I think my first and I regret it and apologise as from everyone else's point of view it looks to be an unjustified use of power. The other 8 were all by the same person, which rather proves my point without needing to explain it further. Could you review the rules of this august organ? It's been nine and a half years since you last did so.

There are no 'rules' regarding the LOCK function...it simply exists as a usable function.
Thank goodness too.
But go ahead and feel free to excerpt anything you like from those execrable and justifiably locked threads....
Perhaps you can build a case...it is after-all, what you do.

Here Nigel...
Let me make it easy for you, here are all the threads that i have locked.
Do let me know which of them merited further existence.

Starting with the oldest:

http://www.headheritage.co.uk/headtohead/u_know/topic/76102/#20

http://www.headheritage.co.uk/headtohead/u_know/topic/76151/#7


Was it the ones filled with the insane rantings and profanity?
The ones that at face value supported mass murder?
The ones that degenerated into utter boot-kicking gang-fucks?

Please Nigel...why don't you help me sort out the wheat from the chaff.
If you can do that, i will gladly unlock all of the above locked threads.

Have you got any idea how intimidating you come across on this forum. I don't understand why you keep locking threads either - it's controlling whichever way you want to slant it.

There's no slant at all.
I will let the content of those threads speak for themselves.

Me?
Intimidating?
What a laugh....
Shall i post a few compilations of the shit I've had leveled at just myself over the years...?
At least i can stand on my own two feet and not constantly seek approval for my own points of view.
And i don't either.

The Village Pump one was my thread and I DIDN'T lock it. I was out all day and by the time I returned the Eds had done so. I don't blame them either due to the vile stuff being exchanged!

Sanctuary, i did not mean to imply in any manner, that you yourself had locked that thread.
I too, could not fault anyone for locking what that thread became...although the individual responsible for the grotesque degeneration that it became has been doing that for nearly 20 years on this site.
Mostly to cheers of approval.
I most sincerely apologize if you feel i was out of line in that particular thread.

Just let it play out, dude. There's no need for all this power-play malarkeying about. And you know it's more about that than damage control/protecting people's feelings. It's the joy of getting in the last word. You could probably argue for hours with my aunt. She always has to wangle in one last "Right!" whenever you're going at it with her. Lovely lady, though. A little bit extremely racist, but lovely.

Anyway, you know about the nature of subjectivity and all that: one man's hateful, diatribe-laden cluster-fuck is another's heartfelt political debate. Maybe you cut people off before they got to the kiss and make up part, causing more hateful, diatribe-laden cluster-fuckery? Let it play out. Else, nige start your own threads whenever you see people start to respond to a dhaj-authored thread, then steer the traffic there. No matter what the agenda, no one person here has the right to dictate the terms of all political discussion just 'cause they've found a new lock tool to play.
