-- Posted by Solitude at 11:29 pm on Oct. 9, 2008 I think it would be nice if the OP could be granted the power to lock his or her own topic. Some people might want to lock it for no good reason, so I guess the mods could give permission to those who they think will not overuse the power of locking their own topics. -- Posted by Dark Knight at 11:30 pm on Oct. 9, 2008 There is far too much room for abuse. Giving the mods additional powers such as this would only contribute to overloading there already heavy load. -- Posted by MR UNKNOWN at 11:31 pm on Oct. 9, 2008 whats the point in locking a thread except for more code david -- Posted by i r sekz at 11:33 pm on Oct. 9, 2008 I think we should have the option to delete our own threads or posts. -- Posted by BackPorch at 11:33 pm on Oct. 9, 2008 I think if anyone is granted that special privilege, than everyone should be? I mean.. how could you abuse that power? -- Posted by Wolf at 11:38 pm on Oct. 9, 2008 If you want a topic locked, you are able to get a topic trashed or locked at any time per your request (with good reason).  You can't really give it to people... it can be abused.  Especially in debate/argument topics.  If there is still discussion going sometimes we will wait. -- Posted by Solitude at 11:39 pm on Oct. 9, 2008 Quote: from BackPorch at 8:33 am on Oct. 10, 2008 I think if anyone is granted that special privilege, than everyone should be? I mean.. how could you abuse that power? may there's a discussion going on and the OP feels offended so he decides to lock the topic. idk LW will think of anything -- Posted by BackPorch at 11:41 pm on Oct. 9, 2008 Quote: from solitude at 11:39 pm on Oct. 9, 2008 Quote: from BackPorch at 8:33 am on Oct. 10, 2008 I think if anyone is granted that special privilege, than everyone should be?    I mean.. how could you abuse that power? may there's a discussion going on and the OP feels offended so he decides to lock the topic. idk LW will think of anything Yeah I guess. I think its a cool idea, but wouldn't work out. -- Posted by hypnotiq desir3 at 11:45 pm on Oct. 9, 2008 Or you could just ask a mod to do it.  Easy enough. -- Posted by Wolf at 11:46 pm on Oct. 9, 2008 Quote: from hypnotiq desir3 at 2:45 am on Oct. 10, 2008 Or you could just ask a mod to do it.
