It seems to me to go against the purpose of "Forums" @p{--} seems to me the whole point is discussion. If you don't want discussion, then buy an ad or publish information on your website. @p{par} Seems to me locking threads should be a last resort instead of "I'll just lock every thread I make to keep out the trolls." @p{par} I'm going to lock this thread now because I think some people will disagree with me. @p{brk} (KIDDING, JUST KIDDING) @p{brk}
