Should the Jason and George thread be locked?

[Sneaky Schnell]

As per title. Has the snooping, ridicule and bullying destroyed what was easily one of the best threads of the year?

[tossbag]

Need option 3 for those who have no clue what you are on about.

[Acehood]

If people stopped giving it unnecessary attention because "OMG JASON PLATO POSTED IN A THREAD ON PH", then there would be no need for this thread.

I didn't read much past the custard pics, but do I take it people have gone too far, as usual?

Seriously, this what is the point in starting up yet another thread about it? If you're bored of it, or if it offends you just stop reading it. It will die off soon enough or the mods will lock it if they deem it to have overstepped the boundaries.

[carlove]

Any link to the thread?

[shovelheadrob]

It was probably the funniest thing on any forum ever up until just after JP said he would start a new thread, strange how it is now populated by posters who weren't involved/interested until then, then 40 pages of bks if you ask me.

Spot on.

[tossbag]

Read a bit of it, yeah lock it, it's dull as dishwater.

[lost_boy]

Yeah, it has ran its course.

[Beyond Rational]

Locked and pruned, so the brilliance remains without the crap.

As it is, a great thread has just been turned juvenile by people who don't understand the use of the word 'epic', nor the 'watch' function on this forum and who seem to resort to the same mindless internet language found the world over because they themselves have nothing of worth or of any originality to say.

Maybe to draw attention to the fact many people on here seem to enjoy ridiculing a teenager who has admittedly embarrassed himself.

It is a recurring theme - like a pack of wolves posters swarm and tear apart.

Maybe they were bullied themselves in the schoolyard and this is their only opportunity to assert themselves as they have no balls unless they are behind their screen.

They know who they are...

A heavy handed mod with pruning shears should be able to restore it to it's former glory. I don't like any thread to be locked but do see the need for it occasionally.

As the thread in question is now linked on other sites it should be used to show PH in it's best light, locking it and leaving it unchanged won't achieve this

[sebhaque]

It's been locked.

[Big Al.]

So this thread is poll is therefore redundant is it not?
