    I mean come on, it's getting kind of rediculous at this point.
    Just scroll down and it's like we're handing out locks like candy.

    Also, inb4lock

    You stupid fucking faggots need to stop saying inb4 the lock. It goes on for several pages for no good reason and forces the thread to locked. It doesn't make you look cool.

    1) Ideally you wouldn't lock any threads because EVENTUALLY they'll get back on topic. Or just delete messages that unrelated.

    Well, typically I can only predict things after they happen. So, being able to do stuff beforehand is a giant leap!

    It's simple, If you keep topics on topic without resulting to insulting each other or doing anything else completely unrelated to the posts in question, without starting Grammar nazi discussions or writing INb4 Lock posts would be locked less, anyway there's a new rule which hopefully will fix this problem for you Kara.

    Basically, what fucking faggot said.

    If you want to prevent threads from being locked, stay on-topic(well, as much as you can) and don't act like fucking idiots. It's simple. A few days ago a thread was started just to celebrate how a lot of threads got derailed. If this forum wants to be an actual good-quality forum, stupid bullshit like "inb4 lock" and intentional thread derailment should be highly discouraged.

    But if we didn't have to worry about threads not being locked we wouldn't do inb4lock to predict it.

    That's really stupid. You are upset and worried about threads being locked, so you try to get threads locked with spam.
    Edit: Also I will be deleting every inb4lock post I see from now on.

    It's not so much spam as the inevidable. But they need eachother to live, apparently. And since wiping out inb4locks will be a pain in the ass, you just have to lock less threads. Thus, less inb4locks.

    Also, inb4lock

    Hurt your cause to help it, makes a lot of sense. Spam to stop threads from being locked.
