Locked Threads....

Now wait a minute....
Does my name get some sort of black mark because one of my threads got locked, even though I WASN"T THE ONE WHO TOOK IT TO A PLACE THAT THE MODERATOR DIDN'T LIKE....I started an innocent thread about 55/Rad, who answered my question and that would have been that as far as I was conernced....but it turned into something else that I had no control over....and do not want my name flagged for starting a locked thread.

I don't think there's any stigma attached with having a thread you started get locked. I wouldn't worry about it.

Flagged? Why are you so worried about being flagged? Not life or death. You obviously didnt do anything. Relax.

Threads get locked all the time. I dont take any notice of who started the thread etc., and threads dont just get locked because of bad posts. I've read through heaps that have been locked because the topic has already been posted. Members even request threads to be locked to Mods for their own reasons. Honestly I have no idea why you think your name will be 'flagged'.

I was banned for 1 week, and it said 'banned' next to each of my posts on the entire forum. But no one cares about it, and no one remembers it anyway. Locked threads is nothing to be worried about.

What? You didn't realise that getting banned on BikeForums effects your credit rating and increaes your insurance premiums?

55/Rad
Thanks.
I guess that's why I wanted to check this. Like you, I try to be straight-forward and fair here and have a reputation here as such. While many have a generic handle and simply take part under the veil of internet secrecy, I put it out there as to exactly who I am....and in addition....am a 'known commodity' in my community because of my status as a radio talk show host here. I don't need any bad PR that I didn't bring on myself....even if it's only here in BF.

a) I only wanted to know if Rad was still around.
b) I got my answer from him.
c) I hope he continues to be an active member of our community here.
