    ok so a lot of people tag @Lord_Roke when they want to lock their thread because they think that you can't lock it themselves BUT HOLD ON!! XD
    it is possible to lock your OWN thread if the thread isn't too old. I'm not sure how old exactly the thread is allowed to be, but the oldest I could lock was a thread from 46 days ago. I don't create many threads though so it might be much higher (Can we have some info on that, @Lord_Roke ?)

    ok so here is how you do it:
    1. Scroll up to the very first post on the first page (must be your post)
    2. Click on EDIT (bottom left)
    A box will open where you can edit the content of your post
    3. Next to SAVE CHANGES in the bottom right corner of the box, click on MORE OPTIONS...
    4. Scroll down and untick OPEN
    5. And finally you only need to click on SAVE CHANGES to save it.

    If you don't see an OPEN box your thread is too old :frowning: :frowning:
    In that case click REPORT (it's next to EDIT) and say that you want to get it Locked.


    LOVE & WAFFLES

    You can always report the thread saying you want it locked. Tagging @Lord_Roke is a good annoyance though. :smile:

    Being able to lock your own thread is independent from how old the thread is; it depends on the forum. In all Resource Pack and Team/Group/Clan sub-forums, you can lock your own threads.

    Indeed.

    Locked. (<- you can't do that here)
