Locking a thread is useless, if you don't want to discuss a topic anymore, then don't reply. Replying only adds to the banter.
The original thread was DK Photo's, the pics look cool, some really original BDU's, suits, etc. Chainsaw's setup looks like he put a lot of work into a Vietnam era outfit, and if thats his thing then more power to him. I didn't even notice his hand position, etc.
The thread started off great and went downhill fast, if one person posts something that you don't like, don't respond to it, if you do respond then expect them to fire back with a comment, but don't ask the admins to lock the thread. Be the bigger person and just say "thats their opinon" and let it go. You'll find more and more in life that there are a lot of people that you don't like/agree with, what makes you an adult/mature is how you deal with them.
DK looked like a great event, everybody had a good time (from what I heard) and nobody got hurt so lets all focus on that. Lets all give credit to Reaver for taking the time and effort to put together the event so everybody could have fun!!
