I agree that forum threads should never be locked. I don't know how many times I have wanted to respond to threads that were marked solved then locked or old threads that haven't been posted to for a while so some body decided to lock them. I don't think it is in the spirit of open source to lock threads except for something that the admins or devs make that are just announcements. I just felt the need to respond to this one so I guessed were to make a new thread.

We disabled the ability to lock threads recently.
(Well, except for Oshun, because he's special.)

Great idea.
BTW: I used to be an admin on a Linux Distro called Ultima Linux. I was wondering if you get a lot of spam on Kubuntu forums. It seems like we had to deal with spam several times a month before we got a spam filter than got most of it.Just to remind users and devs that Ubuntu and its flavors have a long way to go to be as usr friendly as they should be.

Spam used to be a major problem for us. But Snowhog has become an excellent spam killer and has assembled a number of tools that keep KFN nearly spam-free.
