How to properly lock an article to prevent “pesky, annoying, ignorant” comments

Published on April 28, 2011 By CharlesCS In Blogging

I have come across come people on Joeuser.com who seem to dislike to have others post comments on their articles which contradict their points of their articles. Makes no sense why they post articles in the first place if they don’t want to be told anything to the contrary to what they write but since they do I have a suggestion on how to avoid getting opposing thoughts and opinions posted on their articles.

Easy as pie:

You simply need to uncheck the “Allow users to comment” box as seen above and the result is a msg on the article that states “This article has been locked and is not accepting comments” as seen on my article here so that way you can keep those pesky, annoying, ignorant members of Joeuser.com from contradicting your opinions.

I hope this will make it easier for some here so they don’t feel their opinions are being stepped on and questioned. just keep in mind if you don’t uncheck that box, expect to have you opinions questioned, dissected and debated, which is what I thought was the point of Joeuser blogs anyways.

Thank you.

LOL, figured you couldn't answer the question without insulting someone. Fact, no one gives a dam about your spell check abilities. Fact, you are the queen of name calling and insults. Fact, you are too stupid to see facts or accept them when they contradict you opinions. Fact, there seems to be more intelligence on this article alone than most of yours. Hows about you grow up and respond like an adult for a change? Only children get annoyed about silly things like this, you get annoyed about things waaay to easily.

Couldn't have said it better myself, hehehe.

PS - CharlesM - I did answer the question ... see word #1, that was all it was worth

Quoting Dr Guy, reply 26Yes, I guess we are all computers and always speak facts and never speak opinions. But you are wrong again. WHile most of the article is opinion, there are several very salient facts listed throughout. You just do not know the difference.If there are any facts liusted above, you sure have hidden them from me ... would you care to site one or two perhaps? So I repeat ..."Doc, This article contains just about as many facts as well ... as all your comments do ... ZIP!" It is always I cannot prove anything and you don't have to, go figure?

you really do not know what a fact is do you? From just a few posts of mine (I will let others do the same with theirs):

Blacklist him if you do not like his comments. Or make them private. There is no point in degrading into name calling when one were offered.

since I am not the one complaining about another's comments on my blog, nor am I the one arguing with the supposed offender on HIS BLOG,

Hmmm - I have not heard the likes of that since I was 10- in the school yard taunting contest.

I make my statements and back them up with facts,

Facts do not need to be as grandiose as E=MC2. They can be as simple as - you do not know what a fact is.

Fact, there is little if any intelligence for this whole whiney article.

You really are clueless! That dearie is an OPINION. Learn the difference - be, be the difference.

"You do not know what a fact is" ... is a sentence fragment "E=MC2" is an equation, neither of which is a fact ... but we know, you make all the rules, tell me how to write and use a dictionary and how wrong everything about me is ... and this speaks volumes about you.

Yep, just like I told your twin CharlesM ... Just loaded with facts ... glad to see you wasted your time on this nonsense, was it fun. So now I understand all those posts by you were filled with 'these' kinds of facts, go figure. Doc, I know all your opinions … because they are all opposed to mine, makes it real simple which is what you seem to need … real simple.

Facts do not have to be sentences! You are clueless! A dog sits - is a sentence fragment, but it is also a fact (if indeed the dog sat).

I do not make the rules. If I did make the rules, spelling would be a lot easier and all rules would be like German Grammar! You are just piqued because you got caught up making an idiotic statement and do not know how to back out of it without admitting you are wrong. Your best action at this time is just to agree you are wrong - we all are on occasion - or as in your case - most of the time.

Yep, just like I told your twin CharlesM

Charles is a 30 something man from Puerto Rican (and Proud of it) while I am a 50 something man from all over. The only thing we have in common is our ability to recognize bullsh*t when we see it.

That just proves you cannot read as I already stated that not all of these posts were facts. But you made the gross generalization that there were no facts. We merely showed you that you are not intelligent enough to recognize the difference and your statement affirms that O-B-S-E-R-V-A-T-I-O-N.

Now you want to play god! So tell me, what am I thinking at 10am on May 31st?

Boy you do have a god complex! It is all about "ME" to you, right? My, I wonder how the world existed before your existence! There was a void and in that nothingness, you caused the world to be!

there's no more need to argue DrGuy, her stupidity has shined thru today beyond any reasonable doubt.

$E = mc^2 \,\!$

where E is energy, m is mass, and c is the speed of light in a vacuum. The formula is dimensionally consistent and does not depend on any specific system of measurement units.

This is not a fact? LOL.

And now a lesson on how to prove the point of this article "How to properly lock an article to prevent “pesky, annoying, ignorant” comments" because at this point that is all we are getting from BoobzToo, pesky, annoying, ignorant comments.
