Even if its not their intent
Well said, I don't know what sort of backlash or unproductive discussion they expected on a thread for a 2m fine. Unless gabe was complaining about the oncoming slew of fire gabe remarks? @Gwdjohnson

Locking the thread had nothing to do with that penalty in particular, but it's just a new standard of practice we're looking to include at the J level after much discussion.

It's also not that anyone is against meaningful discussion with regards to penalties (and points made here are fair and ones we'll discuss in J HO), it's more that we want to have those discussions as discussions (like what's happening now) and not necessarily encourage the dunk on humans fest that seems to happen frequently.

While it might feel silly to have a separate post for it, it also sometimes feels like the more productive way to keep the conversation focused.

It seems infinitely more productive to me to punish people who are unfairly dunking on other users on that basis alone as opposed to full on locking discussion threads though

I guess mentally, a punishment thread/that forum is an announcement place, where we can say "Hey, this happened, this is the action taken" vs an actual discussion about said action, which, makes way more sense to me in the discussion forum.

But then if a thread like this is made isn't that the same thing? I don't see any difference personally but maybe someone else does?

I think it's really just mental purpose of the site sections. I get that it's probably 6 of one half dozen of the other for most people, but after a discussion about it in J HO, ultimately we felt it was a more positive move to just begin locking all threads we post to the punishment forum.

If ALL of the threads that drive activity are centered around dunking on other people for their mistakes we got some problems.
