Summydad1 Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 I am not sure where to ask this and I know it is a noobish question but why do threads get locked? Does it have to be reported or does a mod just stumble upon it. Who ultimately decides if the content is inappropriate? Not trying to start trouble just curious. Are there rules anywhere in the forums to follow specifically or is it unspoken rules? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes mods stumble upon them. 3. Admins and mods are all-powerful. Only their discretion matters. 4. There are TOS and guidelines all over the place. Sometimes stuff gets removed even if it doesn't violate anything. We are powerless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Hood made a charming comment to another member that I replied to in earnest and that was nuked and taken away as it was attached to his comment so someone is watching.

The other way that scenario plays out is that I check my email to see that "Kav has sent you a message" from the Voldemort boards.
