We leave threads open and people complain asking why they're still allowed to be spammed in and haven't been locked or trashed yet. We lock them and people still complain. Can't have it both ways.

Actually, it's my first time to tackle a topic like this. It's just fine to lock threads which are useless and I won't argue with that, but when it comes to locking useful threads well it's a different issue compared to those useless threads. Well, sorry hilariousetc if it seems like I'm complaining but actually I'm just asking for clarifications why this is happening to our local.

Threads are locked for a variety of reasons: duplicates, served their purpose, turning into spam megathreads etc, but staff can't win.

I've seen those threads and I think
Duplicate- it's not a duplicate in my opinion, the contents are translated into tagalog from the original with references so I don't think it's duplicate.
Turning into spam megathreads - theyoungmillionaire's threads are self moderated and I think s/he intentionally do it to avoid unwanted replies so that the thread will not become spam megathreads. But it still has been locked.

I don't really know what's the reason for those threads being locked. I know our Mods has some valid reasons why but I'm really curious what are those. Well, maybe because they're not Bitcoin related topic but I still wish to open those threads as they are good discussions about the forum.

If you want to get an answer as to why a specific thread was locked then contact your local mods. If you make your case they might reopen them but at least you can get an answer as to why they were locked in the first place. They're usually done so for one of the reasons listed above though.

Thanks hilariousetc, but do they suppose to reply in this thread too? I'm sure that they are visiting Meta section too and maybe (just maybe) they already saw this thread but still no response from them Sad

theyoungmillionaire inspired a lot of poster not only in our local board that's why I'm fighting for those threads (including other threads I've mentioned made by other members) so that it won't become useless as they are now under a lot of spam threads.

That's embarrassing. It's a mistake. I mistook rickbig41 as ralle41 since both name starts with r. Cheesy

I've edited my post.

Not so sure. Hmmmm
