I totally get that some people are on here 24x7...

I can understand they want to read new insights, new articles, and new takes...

But locking or moving threads because one is tired of a subject seems to directly contradict what the forum is about.

I mean seriously, if you dont want to read 'another post' about ~whatever~ than friggin dont read it, or if you have to share your h8 than do what the jerks do and just post 'do we have to have another post on blah blah blah'.

1000 threads about he who shall not be mentioned, need to be moved, locked and burned. And posters of said threads need to be quartered! And that all I have to say about that...

That's just crazy. What if SI.com does an article and it says Vick wants to play in carolina? Dont post it because we hit your '1000' post about it?

Tell me what is just SO hard to not read a post.

It's like the argument for censorship in music. Society wants to control something another group wants to hear - one simply cant turn the radio off, instead they want to say NONE or NO ONE shall listen.

Whatever.

Because it makes it easier to read the forums when you lock/move/delete repeat threads.

How about you do a search for whatever you want to read about? Chances are, it's already been made.

And if it's something recent, or about vick? Chances are there is likely 3 threads about it ON THE FIRST PAGE STILL. Just take the time to at least scan the first page or two, or maybe do a search. It's not hard.

locking threads doesn't stop any discussion. It focuses the discussion. This morning there were already 6 threads about Kemo's injury on the front page. In every one of those threads "someone" came up with the original idea to move Brayton to DT exclusively. Anyone who came to the site with concerns about the injury and who took the time to read the existing threads would have seen these "original thoughts" first hand.

But instead, someone who has not read any of the threads decides that moving Brayton is his own unique "idea" and decides to start his own thread. IMO this is a perfect example of what mods are supposed to do. Nothing against this guy, his intentions were good...but he was lazy. Mods are at war against lazy posters.

It's great to contribute to a forum, but the whole definition of "forum" is that it is a two way street. If you want to contribute....Read First.... then post an opinion. Posting your opinion without reading associated threads is arrogant and rude.

Merging posts with the same topic is fine - it really helps focus discussions. I am very appreciative of the mods here.

Locking threads because one is tired of reading about it is not.

If a post has a link to a site that has an article or interview with a Panther - that is pretty awesome. Maybe not as awesome about reading about Rosie's turd, but the wrong one got locked.

People should be entitled to their own opinion yes, but do we really need to hear things like vick coming here knowing that we don't have the money or the personal that wants him? Please...... More interestin things to talk about

poo, we had to read thread after thread about peppers. those were not locked or moved.

    • overall agree on the draft grade as a whole on on each pick, but every time I read (and I have read it more than once) that we "gave up two firsts" for Bryce, I am confused. We gave up the 2024 first, but we swapped 2023 firsts, so we didn't give up anything there. We did give up our former first rounder in DJ, but I don't think thats what you mean as one of the "firsts" we gave up.
    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
