Suggestion Let us lock our own threads

[Deleted member 546149]

Please allow this to happen as it would really help in some situations

No. If it's anything like Facebook allowing you to disable comments... Someone can make a thread and lock it when they've said what they wanted.

I think it's a good idea but I think we're in the minority

By allowing it, the right to rejoinder would be taken away. Turning discussion threads into one a sided plead whenever the OP desires.

Not a very good decision.

believe it or not a mod has done that to threads they didn't create
why have rules anyway smh

No, and that goes in the same category from deleting your own posts.

No one wants people in here make their own echo chamber.
If a thread or a posts needs to be deleted, it will be at the staff discretion, if it was reported for that reason.
Same for locking a thread, report and ask nicely, if the moderator handling the report considers the reason valid, they will most likely oblige to it, else, the content will stay open and visible to every forum visitors.

If you are ashamed of your own posts/threads, then maybe work on your ability to think before posting, damage control and panic delete can stay on other social medias, thank you.

Maybe because the mods are the ones enforcing the rules?
What point are you trying to prove with this contradiction? lol

What threads would you even want to lock?

 

[Tom Bombadildo]

I see no reason why normal users should be able to lock their own threads. This is a forum, a place for discussion, letting people decide when discussion can happen and when it stops in their own threads is counter-productive to the point of this forum.

If someone wants a thread locked, they can simply report it to the mods and have it locked.

That may be the fastest "nevermind I'm dumb lol" I've ever witnessed for a long time.

If we locked our own threads we can actually chose HOW OUR CONTENT GOES

Instead of locking your own thread, you can do the bigger brain move and ban your own account
