if its because of the hitler/nazi reference
its been done 10,000 times for every single sports team

however, mods post equally useless threads?

It's also at least the third different Raptors version...previously there was a TJ/Jose one after the trade, and one at the end of last season. 'Tis played out.

This is the type of thread where the mods need a small explanation to avoid confusion. It's not an obvious lock.

I don't know Delaney, I think there could be multiple reason for the lock.

The poster said it has some profanity in it (Realgm is 13+). the original post also seems to be advertising some products (against TOS).

It has been done multiple times. I honestly only found the first one humorous.

And there is a chance that someone reported the post, as there are some people who do not enjoy Hitler jokes and find them to be offensive.

I can see why it was locked, especially on the Raptors board.

Why was this locked? There was no baiting, nothing offensive. No explanation from the mods. Irresponsible behaviour.

I would assume this was done, as a) religion conversations are never pleasant for anyone, especially on the internet, b) the mods felt that Realgm is not a place to be discussing religion, and/or c) the mod felt that the thesis of the thread was inaccurate with no supporting calculations.

Of course, there is always d) he wants you to post that GIF of you punching 2 people again.

On a side note, I just got modded by rooster for not being funny enough? And before that I was modded for saying "Iron Curtain". Why was this?

Iron Curtain is a racial term.

Rooster has impeccable taste. In what context did you use the alleged terms of use violation words?
