Lock of the PA State Trooper Thread
The post.
Ok, so a known OOT poster links to a news story about a cop murdering a dentist. It appears the cop was [censored] the dentist's wife. The poster is a cop himself, knew the arrested cop at the time of the murder, and states that he and others had their suspicions. Clearly this is not a linktard. While I can understand not letting things degrade to the typical cops suck nonsense level, locking immediately? Really? There's a helluva lot of potential for that thread to turn really interesting. [ QUOTE ] just because it's on CNN doesn't mean it's not LOL material [/ QUOTE ] WTF? J |

He basically just linked it. He needs to add more value in the OP if he wants the thread to stay.

I will reiterate: The poster is a cop himself, knew the arrested cop at the time of the murder, and states that he and others had their suspicions. All of this was stated in his post; for [censored] sake he has inside, non-public information which he shared in the OP. J |

Re: Lock of the PA State Trooper Thread
Any thread in OOT that involves cops is facing an uphill battle from the get go, since this one doesn't involve prostitutes it wasn't going to be interesting it was going to be OMG cops suck!
Let me put it a way you'll understand: OP didn't do enough to make it more than a linktard thread. |

Re: Lock of the PA State Trooper Thread
clearly the OP was trying to put some effort into the thread, but he wasn't really asking any question or trying to start a discussion. basically linked to a news item and said 'i know this guy, whoa.' that's got LOL written all over it.
fx's insights as a cop have been very useful at times, it's not meant to denegrate his contributions. the rules apply to everyone. lol at betgo... his only post in OOT in months is a two-sentence googletard about jury duty, he gets suspended for it, thread doesn't even get locked, and he shows up in OOT bitching about thread locking all of a sudden. hint: we have been doing the same thing all along. |

In fact, the date of the murder was when I was in the Police Academy. He was one of our instructors when this happened. I wasn't shocked when I found out it was him because we all had our suspicion, but I am definitely shocked that it is the truth. [/ QUOTE ] Wow that is a sick huge OP that is definitely bringing something to the table. I was totally wrong! He definitely included lots of insider knowledge in the OP and there was a lot of [censored] there worth discussing! stabn |

Re: Lock of the PA State Trooper Thread
OOT has had some bad posts, but the mods are really going too far with locking stuff and so on. Reasonable topics should be allowed. If the thread degenerates, then lock it.
