    Hi guys,

    So if any of you were around on the last forums, you would know that any player was allowed lock a post that they made. I don't see the harm of bringing this back. I think it should be added because players who make threads that they want locked don't have to bother staff about it. Just an idea. I'm not sure if it is coded in Xenforo or not

    I agree. Staff already have other things to do, they don't need people saying things like "STAFF! STAFF!" "Can you lock my thread?"

    Easy, tag a mod subjected to that server or a Global mod. We'll lock if you ask.

    True dat

    We have no life anyway, so there's probably at least one mod from that section or one global on. Really, it's not worth the effort of coding it.

    Aww I always wanted to say "Locked'' and get a chicken profile pic. Jk. But in all seriousness. Sometimes posts like non existent clans or something that people Grave dig need to be locked from th perspective of the owner. Even though mods don't mind doing it it would just save time.

    We're here to lock your guys threads and keep the forums clean. Which is being done.

    Frankly, it's is a waste of time to code a solution to a needless problem.

    Hmm, this just seems slightly pointless in my opinion, if someone does post something that they want locking and have a good reason for it to be locked, we can do it, in what, a minute.

    That's why we need active forum moderators.

    I've never been asked to lock a thread before. Not even sure when regular users would even lock their own thread.
