I don't give a damn if you were a moderator on another forum. Not everyone is going to run a forum the same way. If you were a moderator, you would know that derailing a thread and arguing with an administrator are not tolerated. This isn't your forum, it's mine, and I make the rules. You don't pay to keep this place running. You don't deal with the technical headaches that come with running this website. You don't have to deal with foreign governments around the world who want to force you to log in with an ID. Now add internet assholes who do nothing but tell people how to run their forums to the list. Post a new one. We've merged duplicate topics before. This stuff isn't that complicated, dude. You could also do what you just did in this thread. If you're too afraid to ask a moderator why a topic was locked, then you weren't going to post much here anyway. I do. I've been running this place for almost a decade. Most people don't post in the forums; they just download what they want and leave, and I'm fine with that. I'd rather run a small forum than one full of woke snowflakes.

It's the same as with most forums. https://xenforo.com/community/threads/way-to-prevent-new-users-from-bumping-old-threads.211560/ Some admins lock old threads when users post new replies. https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=2244371#p2244371 If you would like to continue a discussion in a locked thread, simply ask. There's no need to make a mountain out of a molehill.

I support ritualclarity's decision to lock those threads. If you have a problem with that, too bad, because I approve all moderation decisions around here.

Fixed.

Yeah, I see it now. Edit: Now I remember! ritualclarity locked the old, inactive threads a few months ago. It looks like I undid that.

I think the update I did this morning is responsible. No moderators took any actions.

People in the YouTube comments were downplaying this yesterday.

I ordered a new motherboard and CPU for my PC, and I'm planning to buy a 1TB SSD. I'm going to take this opportunity to play around with a different Linux distribution. I've been reading about the Debian-based version of Linux Mint and I'm intrigued. It seems that Debian-based distros are more flexible when it comes to installing GPU drivers. There's an issue with Cinema 4D and Wine that causes the program to crash when OpenGL is enabled, and it appears to only affect Ubuntu-based distros. I'm interested to see how C4D performs with LMDE.

I removed it entirely. I'll use a less intrusive ad instead.

We don't have that problem where I live. Not even in areas where the population is mostly minorities. I remember a white guy shooting a black kid who was stealing from a CVS, I think. As far as I know, no charges were filed against him. People talk about Texas, but we don't mess around here either.

The fallout continues.
