Thread locked, please explain mods.

My last thread was locked. It did not have anything in it that violated the rules as far as I have understood them. Except possibly rule #9 however that rule seems like it can be biased and should require an explanation to the OP so they are sure not to repeat the discretion. Side note about locked thread, I was sincerely trying to figure out the watch in the said photos.

Thanks.

For what it's worth looked like a TT DJ36 to me on Oyster if you are looking.

Thanks. That seems like it is the consensus.

I get it. However I’ve seen others here that have posted the same and received clarification from the mods. I’m not here on this thread to fight my recent threads locking, I’m doing my due diligence to not run into the same problem again. So a mods reasoning for the lock would be beneficial to us all. And technically according to the rules your post could be considered offensive language and deleted, as well as many comments I see lately. It is all subjective though and that’s what I’m trying to clarify about my post.

I’m guessing it wasn’t so much your post but rather the objectifying banter below which could be offensive to some female members.

Put a bunch of guys in a room we can’t help ourselves lol

Thread locked, please explain mods.

Mods usually won’t discuss locked threads, banned members or disciplinary action. Check your PM to see if you have received any infraction points. If not, then you’re not being disciplined.

Sometimes threads are locked for the betterment of the forum. The fact that you put it in the wrong section wasn’t enough to lock it - if the content was worthwhile it would have been moved.

I think you really know that the content wasn’t Rolex related.

As for its content, the forum intends to be friendly to all…just my 2¢…the commenters prolly took it off the rails but the choice to create it was yours.

You both may be right however, I believe those comments would have been deleted instead of the entire thread. Unless it just saves the mods time to delete the entire thread instead of picking and choosing comments. I get it, and realistically should have known better. Thanks guys (those that commented offensively on deleted thread) apparently we can’t take you all anywhere.

Sorry I didn’t take the time to edit the picture as in my opinion the woman in the picture was perfectly in compliance with all rules set forth. People post their wives, friends, daughters, youtubers, SA’s and just about any other good looking woman and don’t get their threads locked so I didn’t see a problem.

She is wearing a Rolex. Therefore Rolex related. Maybe I should have added the picture to the “what Rolex is this celebrity wearing” (almost always a male) thread and it wouldn’t have been deleted. This was an afterthought though as I sincerely just wanted to know what watch she had on. More discretion will be placed on future posts in this aspect. It was most certainly Rolex related though, otherwise it would have been posted where I normally post “the open discussion forum”.

Unless this is your first day on an internet forum, I find it incredibly difficult to believe you couldn't forsee what your thread would turn into and I still find your arguement disingenuous. There was zero chance it would be primarily about the watch.

What was it about this blurry blob of a watch that made you so intent on finding the referance number?

I enjoy T&A as much as anyone but this isn't that kind of forum.

PICTURE THREAD! Rolex Spotting >>>>>>>>
https://r.tapatalk.com/shareLink/top...ink_source=app

I find it incredibly difficult to believe that you haven’t seen the above thread in the time you’ve been on this forum. Many instances of a blurry watch that many chime in on there, some even blurrier than the watch I was questioning. I realize now I should have taken the time to find that thread and just put it there. I didn’t. I apologize that a question about a Rolex in a picture on a fully clothed woman posted on a watch forum, offended you and has caused so much distress for you.

People tried to explain and you don't seem to understand brother. We all like women here, or at least I think we all do, but if some don't I'm cool with that too. However, this is not a bar where you're having fun with your buddies on a friday night. If you hang around here longer I'm sure you'll understand. Take care. Cheers.

Thanks man. I appreciate the constructive response. I get the thread being deleted for the sexist comments there. What I don’t get and felt I needed to set straight was essentially being called a liar because some don’t believe I thought I could post a picture of a good looking woman wearing a Rolex and legitimately just wonder about the Rolex. I guess I may be more woke than others but I didn’t foresee any sexist comments about a woman wearing a watch, as there’s thousands of pictures of men wearing watches posted here there shouldn’t be a difference in 2021. I figured there was more class and some would actually help identify the Rolex on this forum. Clearly I was mistaken.
