are we locking posts because they're just plain stupid now? i saw two posts by the same guy...full of misspelled words and idiotic sentences...they were locked...maybe there should be special "Idiot Lock Icon" for such posts?

Probably locked because the dope posted in the wrong forum. Kind of like this post and my response.
-------------------- You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for that my dear friend is the beginning of the end of any nation.

Yes, mesusa's posts violated just about every 'rule' of this forum. I believe that CluB99 got to them before I did (had connection issues earlier, my close request might have made it through, although I am not sure). If anyone has an idea about how to keep the unplesant/annoying (__LASY__NEWBIE!) posts down to a minimum, please let us know.

Don't lock them......just send the thread over to the Mush Cult. that way you don't have a bunch of locked threads in your forum.
just an idea bro

If it was me, I'd just lock them and leave them with a message such as:
Post locked. Off topic.
Or:
Post locked. Do a search. Don't be a lazy dumbass.
Well maybe not the last part. By leaving the locked threads where they are maybe other posters, or at least the original poster, will get the idea of what is acceptable for this forum.
Don't just lock them without an explanation.

Add a new sticky thread at top with a tittle like "Why was my post locked ?" and explain the various reasons. Locking explanations could be "Read threads at top please" or ala luv "Read threads at top dumbass !" .

Please post, but do it in cult forum not advanced, have you read the first thread ? If you are a newbie, first grow shrooms and then come back and post, you should have enough knowlodge by then. Anyway, i think you were used as an example, besides you were the last one to break the rules.

i don't think its fair to look down on the unexperiansed newbies some yes but not all. Were all just here to learn. Some don't have the common sense to put there post in the right area. Maybee if the shroomery had a chat room so if someone has a question they need answered right away they won't post all the stupid questions that could be answered in the chat room. have a good day

nobody here is looking down to newbies....but i'm sure that you'll understand that when bunch of kids that have never grown a mushroom in their life jumps to this forum asking stupid off topic questions cause they are too lazy to study is quite bothering
.....all the knowledge they need is already here....in lot's of flavours...they just have to read a bit...isn't that hard no?

In reply to:

yes! so true.
thought: If you know your a newbie, know you have never grown before, then what in the hell would you be doing asking basic questions in the advanced forum anyways...
