Title: About thread locking request Post by: IsuruMaduranga on April 19, 2018, 11:26:50 PM Is it okay if i report a thread to the moderator just to lock it???
Locking some sufficiently answered threads may help to reduce the spams. Title: Re: About thread locking request Post by: TryNinja on April 19, 2018, 11:39:31 PM Your post remembered me of this one: Report Sufficiently Answered Topic(s) to Lock (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3139231.0;all)
No one from the Staff gave a conclusive answer on the subject. However, this post caught my attention: I see :) Anyways, the good news is: They (Moderators) are now responding to "lock thread" requests. I tried it twice (With the right reasons) and afterwards they locked the reported threads. In one instance, I PMed the Author right after using the "Report to Moderator" button. After a few hours the user had sent me a PM saying that "a mod already locked his thread". You can lock the thread now. P.S: There is no evidence that those posts were locked because of the report. |
