Help
SA is locking topics. Lots of topics. I think he should just let them go on.
Sierra's Law: A stupid topic will continue to get stupider until a point of ultimate stupidity is reached. After that, anything can happen.
Don't you want to find out what 'anything' is?

Not certain if this is the best way to address the issue either... 
Not a bad way to get slapped, though.

You should see the Nova Boards.
FlamingDog: Since just about every topic goes off topic, we don't need to keep all of them going. Some of them can die, especially if nobody has posted for over a few weeks.

I support SA in the lockings. In fact, I believe more topics should be locked.

I would point out on the topic about the "raddest" board I was proved correct in my "short phrase" theory.
I would also like to thank those involved in getting my computer topic locked.
I think that this board only needs 1 topic to function as it normally does. To test this, I propose that all topics but one new one started by a mod be locked.

I think this recent round calls for some more lockings. Way too many active topics off-topic.
