Threads accidentally locked

[alan trowel hands.]

The DF 27 origin thread seems to be locked.  That is the 2nd time I have noticed a locked thread in the last few days.  Must be some sort of glitch.

Yeah, it's weird.

A thread locked by an admin or a mod will have a statement to that effect as a final post.

If it doesn't have that, then it locked up in some mysterious, glitchy fashion.

I unlocked the DF27 thread.

Same happened with the U106 Isles thread. (Prior to it's actual locking)

The very strange thing is when the thread gets locked right in the middl

My fault!  I discovered today that I had given the Topic originator permission to lock their Topic.  I also discovered that i couldnt tell whether I was locking or unlocking a Topic when in Firefox.  However, I could tell if I was using Internet explorer.  I'm guessing the lockings were unintentional.  I turned off this permission.

Please let Rich know if a Topic is locked in R1b and Subclades or let me know for anywhere else.  We will unlock it unless the locking was intentional

Try again.  I think I found the hidden switch

Try again.  I think I found the hidden switch

Its still available and it works tooo....

Its so close to the 'Go Up ^'  button is probably why it gets lock by accidentally hitting the wrong button.
