Mods, why are so many threads being locked?

What rules are being broken. Just want to know so that we can stop the infractions.

1. Not a mod or admin...

but my guess would be that they are trying to consolidate threads.

3. This thread is going to get locked too

Since it violates the rules and should be in the "Ask Administrators" forum.

5. Nope: those get locked early on as well.

And if you keep asking you get an e-mail saying you violated the rules.

7. Nah, I've seen them go on for a while

Sometimes the mod is busy with other stuff. And it takes a while for them to get around to it. I've seen threads get a few responses before being locked for being outside the "ask administrators" forum.

6. Well, in my case

it was because it was needlessly offensive.

Upon reflection I'd like to apologise to any and all that I did offend and I'll be muuuuucccchhhhh more careful in the future.

And I won't call Dean supporters ******* anymore, either.

Sorry about that.

Really.

No! Really.

I won't do it again.
