Default Locked Threads??

I come here for information and advice about a passion I love, but certainly don't know near as much as most here. But I got to tell you, I also come here to be entertained and I just stumbled across a thread that made me laugh out loud. It was about Mini Hawk and a check being sent to a charity and it had all the regulars going at it with even Baja and Dolla blasting each other. Then it was locked. Too sad, as it is winter and cold and this banter was just fun to read. Why do they lock this stuff? Who does it hurt?

How does it hurt him? You mean being banned? Or subjected to haranguing and jabs? Or just being allowed to play here? Please explain? Just curious.

Getting bashed.
He's at least unstable and one of the threads that he started proved he couldnt take it. His language was disturbing.
OSO doesnt need the exposure .

Some get locked to soon when it's just smack talking, others get locked when whats said could be libel and used to sue someone. I would bet most get locked from November-April, winter sucks and we get testy.

If you have not had any history with him I can understand why you question the lock down, but there is very good reasons and it is best for him and anyone else involved.
Lets just say he is a pup trying to play with the big dogs.

It might just be that OSO wants to attract advertisers and keep the ones they already have. The BS is bad for business.

Alot of people have come and gone from this site over the years. Many have gone because of the BS.
