>The tech team is checking a bug that is causing some recent threads to be locked. The issue occurs when a member is blocked from the site and has posted within a thread.

Thanks.

Just reporting what I see. Pages 11-50 of the Enterprise threads are all "(locked)"

We'll check those, but there is an auto-lock function set on the boards for inactivity (which could the case on the Enterprise ones).

@ Yanks, two reasons:

(1) It's like an auto-archiving function in which old threads can be used for reference (some fans like going back to their old discussions)

(2) We've had some issues recently with banned members attempting to bump threads to the front just to annoy and inflame members (which it really did).

@ Seer: It's a first for our tech team too!

>Any chance that we can get a true Archive sub-forum? Or maybe a "Thread Directory" that leaks to the most popular topical and locked threads? Make it easier to reference them in the future?

Can you post this idea in the New Ideas thread? That's what the tech team reviews for new development. Thanks.

hmm. That's weird.

Have you ever danced with a Tribble in the pale moonlight?

Excellent!

It's strange, being a catalyst for things that move outside.

A lot of things has been talked about more than once. It's time for a new series so we have new stuff to post about.

That’s funny especially since you post in those same threads feeding into the discussion.

Well where are the updates? They stated an update thread and commented once. It would be nice to know what's going on with the site so we know it isn't being abandoned.
