Well this thread hasn't been locked because it informs newbs when the new release date is. So it is about Brink, and some of the other things on here are just for fun, because the people that have been here for a while get really bored. I wouldn't really complain about your threads being locked either, I think it's against the rules. I'm not sure though, so don't take my word for it.

ya. its against the rules. but ive messaged the mods and have gotten bs responses that dont even explain why exactly it was locked. and i do believe that a mod posted about this when it first happened and locked some repeat threads.

im not one to complain. and this is prob. the best forum ive ever been on. but really. please stop locking my threads. in the rules. it dosent state anything about not posting what i posted. it even states in the rules that the mods will relocate posts that they dont think fit into the section of the forum. im not sayin that would be cool with me. but it would be better that being locked.

and. yes there is conversation to be made in those threads. they are meant to be fun. like what people are doing on this thread

There really isn't much you can do with a "what would you do?" thread. Other topics can last longer because there's more room for conversation. Something like your preorder thread hasn't been shut down because there's a good amount to discuss. A "what would you do" thread only has two options: either stay on topic or don't.

Same goes for the "lol" topic and the "Politics LOL" topic.

i really dont think you understand what i mean. i just wanted to have a little fun. and ive seen plenty of threads worse than mine go unlocked. if it only gets 10 posts. big deal. it dosent hurt anything. by locking them there isnt even a chance of anything starting. and what do you mean stay on topic or not. if im seeing correclty this thread has strayed pretty far from the origional topic. hence the reason im posting here

and i asked for the politics thread to be locked. i knew it was against the rules. just wanted to give some people to click on that day and have a chuckle

i see your on wraith. any advice or help on my situation. sorry im bein like this. just kinda annoyed

I think the main reason for this is because your threads seem to concern self opinions, and thus, are pretty pointless.

1st Post: "Cool Story bro!"

2nd Post: [Quote] Cool Story bro! [Quote]
"U mad bro?"

3rd Post By Moderator: "This is a pointless thread, so it will be locked. Have a nice day."
_______________________________________________________________

I'm not insulting you, I'm just saying thats how a lot of the threads on here go. Sometimes, It takes a Mod 1-3 days to lock it, and by then, its a spam fest. So they have decided to stop them before they get out of control.

Don't blame the Mods, there just doing there jobs. Put up a worthy thread discussing an aspect of Brink that we all find suitable and can converse about in a reasonable and civil manner, you'll be fine. :spotted owl:

2. the one of "what would you do" was just for fun. ive seen threads like it. just wanted to give the forum people a laugh. the one guy who got a post in liked it

http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1179886-what-would-you-do/page__p__17469063#entry17469063 is more about the music video than Brink. Worthy of a lock.

http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1178840-lol/page__p__17443671#entry17443671 isn't about the game at all, just something you noticed in the background. Worthy of a lock, especially considering it wasn't new information.

http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1178643-politics-lol/page__p__17438946#entry17438946 is obviously worthy of a lock, no explanation needed.

I'm surprised http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1177927-amazon-preorders/page__p__17420574#entry17420574 hasn't been closed or moved. After, it's asking the same question I asked in http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1166596-to-anyone-with-a-fair-amount-of-amazoncom-experience/ and it was both moved and later closed.

In the last few days you've made twice as many threads as I have made period. Seems a tad excessive don't you think?

1. If you aren't mad about it, then why are you complaining about it? And the mod took the time out of his day to lock it because that's what mods are supposed to do, moderate.

2. It's against the rules, therefore it was locked. The mods aren't punishing you when they lock your topics, they're just doing their jobs. And just because one person liked it doesn't mean everyone else does.

They are though, unless they mean that you can start to download the game on the 9th and play it on the 10th

i almost feel like ive been flamed. but .i have a right to my opinion. and so do you. but. i will still fight for my brink creep reference. dont get pissy with me just because you dont post often. and really man the post was a joke. it was to get some fun replys. i dont know about you. but im tired of hearing the same info every day. the backround thing. well it got some good replys. why. i think its funny i didnt notice it untill just then. you did your research. you said what ive already said. who cares if i made a new post. im not gonna sift through info that is old. the political one. you obviously didnt read all the posts. i got a mod called in and i asked him to lock the thread. it was to give some people a haha. i really dont care what you think about me. but what i dont understand is why am i catching so much flak for some threads i made that could have been left alone and it would have been fine. ive seen many an thread that had nothing to do with brink and didnt get locked. im sorry for trying to brighten some peoples day.

I'm not flaming you - you made a post, I responded. Simple as that.

but .i have a right to my opinion. and so do you.


It's not about opinions, it's about rules. I never said whether or not I disagreed with you, I merely told you why they were locked.

but. i will still fight for my brink creep reference.


Do what you want, but the mods locked it for a reason.

dont get pissy with me just because you dont post often.


I'm not being pissy, I merely said that because I think you should reconsider how often you start new topics. And I post plenty, I just don't excessively create topics.

and really man the post was a joke. it was to get some fun replys. i dont know about you. but im tired of hearing the same info every day.


Am I tired of people starting new topics about the same exact things day after day? Of course I am. But there's a place for starting joke topics - it just isn't here.

the backround thing. well it got some good replys. why. i think its funny i didnt notice it untill just then.


That's fine, just don't complain about how your topic was closed - the mods obviously had their reasons.

you did your research. you said what ive already said.


Okay?

who cares if i made a new post. im not gonna sift through info that is old.


The rules say you should, so obviously someone cares. And your not following the rules is the main issue here.

the political one. you obviously didnt read all the posts. i got a mod called in and i asked him to lock the thread. it was to give some people a haha.


Oh I read it, I just felt it was still worth mentioning.

i really dont care what you think about me. but what i dont understand is why am i catching so much flak for some threads i made that could have been left alone and it would have been fine. ive seen many an thread that had nothing to do with brink and didnt get locked. im sorry for trying to brighten some peoples day.


You say this like I've insulted you. I haven't. The mods haven't either. Quit taking the locks so personally, the mods are just doing their jobs.

EDIT: Minor tweaks.
