Why was this thread locked?
The question was answered, and the thread was locked, disallowing any further discussion.
How absolutely stupid.
Is there any decent reason it was locked?
This is truly getting ridiculous, the frequency of unreasonably locked posts

I think they just let some new admin's out of the cage, and they just like using thier "priveledges"...

Macfreak, you can't with out one of the admins changing it... they can manually change post counts.

John locked it. Don't ask why, he does weird stuff like that. I was the one who re-opened it and moved it.
