milehiiu Posted October 1, 2020 Report Share Posted October 1, 2020 That is the question. When I had the powers before being granted the title of HSN Chancellor Emeritus..... I was not a locker. Always felt the thread could be controlled by other methods. Many great discussions have come as a result. Again. Not easy, nor fun being a mod sometimes. Tick, tock. To lock or not to lock ? Discuss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some members were not happy with the recent rash of locked threads. Thought it was relevant. To that issue..... without getting into politics.

Well it gives us a great chance to complain about the mods, so I'll kick things off.

He has to get his girlfriend/cousin/half-sister/niece (same person) to do it for him. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe he would have gotten the shock of his life, when my huge German Shepard would have greeted him at the front door. This is a dog that lives to protect our house. And I can't believe that the UPS driver just did not set the package down, and ring the bell. That's what they do at my house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not going to ask you what wall that was written on. Reminds me. Of the time I went into the restroom at what was my favorite restaurant in Frisco, Colorado.Very rustic place. Set in an old house on the edge of town. Did not make out the sign on the door. Got in. Looked around and could not figure why there was no urinals in the restroom. Oh well. Went back again, after dinner. Only after leaving, did I see the sign... for the ladies. Just glad there were no ladies in the restroom both times I went in. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
