Because one thread was a trap, the other was making fun of a persons work, and two were flamefests. And I thinks that this thread will soon be on this list

Maybe some links would help us help you figure it out? And by "blocked" do you mean "locked?" I'm confused...

QFT. Perhaps reading Dakka's rules on posting would give you a few tips on how to keep the Mods from smacking your threads down.

All but the last thread are basically against forum posting rules.
Learn from your mistakes by:
- Not putting up spam threads in the case of your 'trap'
- Take caution when posting to avoid double/triple/quintuple threads on the same subject
- Avoid ripping into other peoples work (Alph made that one pretty freaking clear, actually)
- Just accept the fact that some threads go OT and end up being locked for it.
The last thread wasn't your fault, but the first three were. Take time to avoid creating the same problems in the future.
I'll be honest, it can be tough to find threads that are already made about a subject, but taking the minute you need to look through a page of recent results should give you some idea of what to post, and what not to re-post.
Dakka is actually pretty good about avoiding replicate threads that number in the hundreds, we should be thankful for that. Some subjects can be brought up multiple times for many reasons, but it is always at the discretion of a mod to lock or not lock a thread, for any given reason; the reasons are usually perfectly valid, as well.

Your thread topics are bad and you should feel bad.
Well, three of your thread topics are bad, the other was Gwar and the YMDC crew going off in the way only they can. But you should still feel bad.

“We may observe that the government in a civilized country is much more expensive than in a barbarous one; and when we say that one government is more expensive than another, it is the same as if we said that that one country is farther advanced in improvement than another. To say that the government is expensive and the people not oppressed is to say that the people are rich.”

The poor man really has a stake in the country. The rich man hasn't; he can go away to New Guinea in a yacht. The poor have sometimes objected to being governed badly; the rich have always objected to being governed at all
We love our superheroes because they refuse to give up on us. We can analyze them out of existence, kill them, ban them, mock them, and still they return, patiently reminding us of who we are and what we wish we could be.
