Message Boards

I cannot for the life of me, figure out how to lock a topic thread. I've asked several times to friends and admin, but no one wants to cough it up... Anyone care to share?

I may be wrong but I thought only Admin. can lock a topic.

Me too, I think only Admin can lock it.

yep, you must request it locked.

I believe it automatically locks after so many posts or views. I can't remember how many.

It use to lock after 1000 but I think they raised it. I did not know we could request it -so guess I'm not much help. LOL

You can lock PM threads that you have started (there is a little box at the bottom of the first post you made on the PM), but you can't lock threads on the main board. Sorry Chicky.

...6).Topics having over 2,000 pageviews will be closed by the moderators of this message boards.
Messages from administration a year ago indication they'd be flexible about the 2000 views so there wouldn't be multiple threads for ongoing topics.

If you are in a message topic that you originated, I thought you could go to "tools" and "close" the topic. I've never tested, just assumed that would lock the thread.
