Me too, but such an effort is almost always disappointing, as most bans are for socks, and not asshattery. I keep looking for the “magic” post full of profanity-laden bulging-eye diatribes against another poster or a moderator, and almost always am let down.

Same here. I usually wind up thinking “Why did this guy get banned?”
Yes, although a thread may be “dead”, I do have a compulsion to find out WHY it is dead.
I watched a lot of Quincy when I was a kid…
I categorically deny clicking on ANY threads, locked or otherwise.
Some of my best friends are locked threads.

You too? He was my hero.

I only look at locked threads sometimes.
For instance, if I see right by each other:
{open} Help with broken air conditioner
{locked} Help with broken air conditioner
I won’t open the locked thread.

Dude, that freakin’ broken air conditioner thread rocked !!!
I can neither confirm nor deny that I might or might not click on locked threads.
In the 1980’s it was called, " Clickable Deniability"
ETA: Yes. I always do.

Had everything you would expect from a bannee: spouted nonsense in the OP designed to elicit annoyed responses, threats, insults, arrogance out the wazoo.
And the best part is I got to watch it all unfold before the lock came down.
That was indeed good. I failed to read any of the long diatribes, but from the short stuff it is fairly obvious that Time2Pwn had just come to insult people and blog his bizare ideas.
