    Ok, I get that the moderators have been cracking down. I understand it completely, and even apploud at it.

    But please, delete the threads, if you look 50% or more of the threads are locked. Locking a thread just seems to waste space, seeing how no one can post in it, but everyone can see it.

    This is hard while browsing around...maybe just use the delete button? Could save Llama some space and help out the users browsing through.

    I have to agree.... navigating around all the closed topics just sucks! Im all for deleting them, because if they were dumb enough to get locked than they should just be gotten rid off all together!

    :eek: at that. You suggesting you're gonna spam useless topics because mods lock useless threads? Or are you suggesting that mods locking useless threads causes your creative juices running and you can make 10 genuinely purposeful threads for everythread they lock?

    Anyways, one problem with deleting/archiving threads that previously used to be jus locked would mean people'd wonder and post another useless thread asking where it's gone.

    The thread could be left locked for a hour then moved to the archive, that would solve the problem.

    @ Cheeky

    I would have to warn you 10 times then...... :eek:
