How about we euthanize this thread now....Hmmmmmmm????????????????
switch123 So what you are saying is no one is allowed to be funny here, or only certain people are allowed to be funny, or you are not allowed to be funny? If so, this would be the first forum I have ever visited where funny was not allowed, well, except for my brother in laws mortuary owners forum. Talk about a bunch of people really lacking a sense of humor. I looked at the Flat wheel Diner and the other coffee pot Lounge thing, and didn't see any problem with either one, most of the forums I have belonged to have something like them, (expect my brother in law's)sort of chat threads, I guess. So, yes, the irony is lost on me. Personally, I thought this thread rather humorous, and because my wife is a cat breeder and belongs to a few cat breeders forums, I knew what the symbol meant. I was wondering why she, (I assume Mookie is female from the gender references) was only listening instead of participating. I think I know now. Sorry to have been a bother.

That was not what I said at all. Have you been in this forum the past few weeks? The padlocks were being tossed around like candy at a parade. Anytime a thread even ventured off topics (sometimes into politics, sometimes into trucking, of all things) the thread was quickly locked. While this thread may be some sort of funny, it is still off-topic. It has about as much to do with trains as the trucking thread that was locked. It's the moderator's call what to lock. and there is no way for them to be 100% fair and balanced and I accept that. But maybe 75% fair? 70 on a bad day?
Do we really want a forum full of off-topic posts? We have the lounge and diner threads. Off-topic stuff can go in there. This is a TRAINS forum. It was stated before that topics have to be RR-related. so how about we follow that idea?
It's been fun. But it isn't much fun anymore. Signing off for now.

It wasn't a hot topic until perfectly valid threads (<-- my opinion, worth nothing in real life) were being locked for being "off-topic". This thread is about as off-topic as anything. Yet, nary a word is said. So, a thread eventures into trucking, union, or political matters it is verboten. But a thread that contains nothing but nonsense is allowed because someone thinks it's cute.
That how it works? I'm confused.
zugmannIt wasn't a hot topic until perfectly valid thread were being locked in the guise of "off-topic". What's good for the goose and gander and all that stuff...
Unless you are a part (or member) of that "other thread"
I thought I was wrong but it turns out I was mistaken.

Alrighty, then. I believe we've all had a chance to express our opinions about punctuation, and several other issues. As proof, that you can't please all the people all the time, I'm going to drop the curtain on today's episodes of How the punctuation turns. Please join us in some of the railroad related topics also found on our forums. Thanks you.-Norris user/moderator
