All realizations lead to silence

No, the resident dumb bunny isn't handing out koans just yet.  The following @llama topic got locked and @itude got muted, hence the title. Sorry for the disappointment.

When the going gets tough, the going gets locked.

It looks like I got it locked by asking for information when in fact itude's posts were deleted. I never did get an answer.

@Llama has been self-silenced for about 4 months now..  @llama47 is the mighty thread creator. 

@itude is just a prisoner of the war he wanted.

Were they deleted or did they just disappear when he was muted?

I'm not sure I know the difference between deleted and disappeared. They vanished. I assumed the moderator deleted them. If that's not how it works then they just disappeared.

Pretty sure he was muted. He was being pretty contentious with a mod.

All your posts and topics are invisible when you're muted. They reappear when you're unmuted.

They don't disappear. I remember every note and forum and blog I posted before I was muted vanished when I got muted, but reappeared after I was unmuted.

Hail Itude! A troll but a generous one.

Ah, understood. That explains the blank pages that will someday be refilled.

If the don't disappear, how do they reappear?

I thought it was a worthwhile topic.

^^ this!! When someone gets muted all their comments vanish but reappear once they are unmuted

They disappear

Basically it's like you never posted that topic or blog or note in the first place.

Luckily for me, I was drunk and listening to pure, concentrated, 1990s.

This guy Neil Cicierega that @limehouse2 introduced me to.

With apologies in advance due to the fact that (I assume) 99% of people wont like it wink.png

Only silence while we meditate and realizzzzzzzz...

Never been a fan of locking a thread to control one or two posters.  It punishes the good actors with the bad actors.

Nonsense/spam threads posted as such from the get-go is another matter.

In contrast to my last post, some of you might actually like this one...

After much meditation the bunny has decided that he shall now respond with the "Wut? No u." to any comment he doesn't fully understand  and "let's race to 100" to any that he fully misunderstands.  In other words, the bunny intends to do no further reading nor thinking (disclaimer: this is not a claim that the bunny has ever done so in the past) . He has hereby been assimilated.
