It's in the water cooler. You need 50 or more posts to view any of those threads. The best threads can be found in the water cooler.

Very much this.
There are like seven rules for getting along in this community of shooters, and the admins/mods are quite lenient as concerns them. Running afoul of them is something you essentially have to try to do, but yet people do so...repeatedly.
For those who understand, no explanation is needed. For those that don't, no explanation is possible.

Agreed, and for that other 1% an explanation would be nice. Obviously we have folks who have learned the hard way about posting certain types of photos, racist content, and insults of fellow members. When a thread that is mostly a series of text links to articles is locked while disputes are at a minimum an explanation would be nice.

Every once in a while there are cases, after posting on the internet, I'd like to be forgotten. 
So sometimes I think we're happy the mods deleted an entire thread.

There may be reasons that the Mods would rather not divulge. When I ran the M1/M14 forum, we had some of the most vile and disgusting posts left by newbies and veterans. You would be surprised how capable people can have humongous brain farts.
I know curiosity gets the better of us some times. But I've found that these mods will give an explanation when THEY feel it is warranted.

Once or twice or 50 times I've posted something and then a little later thought you know, someone could take that in a way that is completely different from how I intended. I wish you could delete a post in a locked thread.

How long will it take before someone uses '3%' as a screen name?
Norton posted a good explanation in a closed thread the other day (Muslim chaplain thread?)...when there is too much of "you" this and "you" that, it's time to shut it down (I paraphrase since I can't even remember which thread it was.)

Just wanted to give an open thanks to the Mod Squad for keeping this place relatively free of issues, and keeping tabs on things that could get out of hand, and become unfortunate incidents.
No need for details... just thanks.

I'd have to agree that the Mods here are pretty lenient.
It takes a certain amount of personal talent to get banned here.

When All Else Fails.
The only threads I've seen deleted are the highly inflammatory/taint hairs in a knot/grab your pitchforks/a call to arms cuzz we ain'ta takin' this shitnomo threads.
Just my overly opinionated opinion, but I think the Mods are simply trying to tamp down an uprising.
Could be wrong of course.

Yeah well we just put a President in office largely over the issue of illegals harming American citizens. I would think that we could have a thread on this topic without it being deleted. Apparently not. To the best of my recollection there were just news articles and responses to news articles in the thread. As of last night there was no arguing or controversy in the thread that I observed.

I have not noticed. There seems to be many posts pertaining to that in the Rockville Rape thread.
Did note some posts elsewhere deleted which absolutely agree was prudent.
