    Anyway I was going through my posts and Like, all the threads I've made, including the not spam ones were like all mysteriously locked with no one having edited them so I was wondering

    They autolock after a certain period of inactivity. If you want one unlocked, you can PM a mod and they'll probably unlock it for you.

    What Guy...er, yeah... [face_mischief]

    (Some forums do it quicker than others, and some never really autolock (like Fan Fic Resource), so it depends on which forum they are in.)

    Actually, all threads in every forum autolock after not being replied to for six months.

    However, if there is an old locked thread that you think would benefit from being unlocked and up'd (ie new information for an old thread) then PM any forum mod and they'll reopen it for you.

    Sometimes it's better to start a new thread though, but PM the mod anyway for their opinion.
