NATO Dillholes

[KillingFrenzy]

Hey,
What's up with locking the thread by that Dillhole that wants to spout gibberish about NATO?

Even though it is more natoZ2zt4 SKYizFallin5g gobbledygook, I support the right of people to spout such gobblydygook. MORESO, I support the right of people to respond to such by publicly ridiculing it. I understand locking a thread that has gone around and round in circles, or a thread that is about a time sensitive subject that could be confusing to leave open (applications for a contest, etc) but closing a thread just because it seems lame is stifling potential discussion. I don't like the idea that weirdos will get shut down just for being weird.
There is also no explanation for why it was locked.
So why is it locked?

[Rovastar]

I must say I don't know why it was locked tbh I didn't rerally understand what everyone was on about or why there appeared to be strong viewpoints raised.

Thread in question:

i dunno - wasn't me who locked it??

[robotfunk]

guess it was morph? he said 'it doesn't anymore' which would make sense in reply to your questioning why the thread existed.

after reading the other nato thread, i was just about to respond in the same way KF did. but found this thread first.

siliencing gibbering people serves no pupose, if some one does'nt like the random fashion of asking a question then can't it just be ignored?

essentially i found it a humorous method of asking a genuine, legitemate question about a piece of software that was surrounded in bullshit l33t sp34k or whatever.

there is very little disscusion, and history about nato on these forums, is it becuase of reflexs like morphs?

[robotfunk]

I think most NATO fans/users were punished bad enough by its creators to never look back, and the rest of us never cared enough to give it a second thought. Can't say I agree about closing the thread though..

The synopsis: someone was asking for software crack/license, ergo thread closed.
Is there another interpretation?

[DrEskaton]

yes holly.

the software is discontinued so the only way to obtain it legally is to buy a copy off someone second hand.

thats how I interpreted the original request and I agree that the lock was too hasty and not needed.

Why do you always misinterpret what I say to suit whatever agenda you are pushing at the moment, esk?

I agree 100% with Morph! The thread should be closed. No debate. No "discussion". They guy is not in Australia and neither is VJc, so vague info from wikipedia is irrelivant to VJc policy.

That he posted again and demanded someone "give it to him" is enough to get this alias banned.

come on, don't close the thread, i promise not to abuse it anymore

but i can hold my excitement because i don't think its a asking for warez question but yet another Netochka Nezvanova pr stunt and its interesting to poke around a zeitgeist
