I go to work and it's locked thread city! Is there some kind of lock epidemic? Are we all anti-loccination?

This is what I was getting at with mine--not protesting. Just noticing a lot of them and was trying to be silly, but Dave was all "Get off my lawn!" and threw iron padlocks at our heads and sprayed lock spray at our faces.

I get lost in Skyrim and the forum goes to crap in a hand basket. Tisk.

The only lock I saw was Gasbandit just being a terrible person, in an otherwise potentially humorous thread!

Just another case of people taking pointless internet shit way too seriously.

Man, I can't believe I missed out on GB thread. That was gold too. What the fuck? All the good threads always get locked.
I guess it's back to safe topics like funny lame picture threads. hur hur hur.

We are actually working on an automatic system that will evaluate a thread based on the first post and then lock it if the evaluation says it's going to eventually get locked. Let me just say this, it's working REALLY good. So far no threads have gotten through it without being locked. :awesome:

Does it work by checking the username of the thread starter against a list?

Only those that start with an A-Z or 0-9.

I don't think I have ever been as tempted to create an alt as I am right now.

All my mac keyboards have a little "alt" written on the option key. Each of my PCs have two alts as well.

So that's 26 alts in total for me.

Which is not as many cakes as were stolen by Lex Luther.

Yep. The Alt key is the option key's alt key.
