What are locked topics?

Locked topics are topics that Staff think should be closed so that members can no longer post in there. Spam and Garbaged topics are locked so that they aren't brought up again!

Ok, but you'll have to register (I make everything on my forum so that only friends can see and write anything). You can find it in your PM inbox.

So your wondering why you can still reply to it? From what your locked post said.

You said "See, I shouldn't be able to reply to this topic, but I just did. I don't know what a locked topic is."

Is that your question? Why you can still post in the locked topic?

Yeah, exactly.

The reason you could still post in the locked topic is because you are an Admin.

Administrators & Moderators can post in Locked Topics. I am a member and I can't post in your locked topic.

Oh.... Thanks. I was so confused.

(Problem Solved)

May I delete your "temporary" account on my forum? Or is it not temporary?
