What am I doing wrong here?
How come my threads keep getting locked and combined with others when I believe that I have posted the "news" well before the other thread(s).

I have posted an example that just happen last night and as you can see - same story just that my thread was locked even though it was up over 2 hours before the other it was locked with.

What gives am I missing something here???? BTW this happened twice in as many days.



my post and original time

1. You may want to PM the mods about this
I am guessing this thread will itself get locked.

2. I don't think it's personal, if you need a real explanation ask Admin

6. Ha ha, ha
Don't hold your breath waiting for an answer.

I've had it happen and they never respond or rectify the situation.

3. For the same reason
Michael Jordan didn't get called for as many fouls as the rookie players.

Check the post counts - that's who usually wins.

4. Maybe just the luck of the draw

Can't answer the question, but it is still good work.

7. I think there is another explanation....
When the mods combine post it changes the OP's time stamp. Look at the time of the first responce to the OP's original post. 12:17 am. Three hours earlier than your post. But, don't be discouraged. Good Work!
