Moderators locking topics???

[electrobit]

Hi guys, as you can see I am new in the forum participating. So I don´t understand some things, one of them is why moderators lock some topics, it appears with a padlock. I would like to know which could be the reason moderators to lock that topic.

Thank you for your answers and feedback.

Moderators lock topics when the question posed in the thread or the original post has been answered. If they had more time they'd do it (i.e., lock threads) more often but since the volume of threads/posts is so high and the number of moderators is so low they only lock the most obvious of threads.

Thank you, I really don´t know how it works many things in the forum. So when a topic is locked, this avoid people comment on it? It is so? or what happens when a topic is locked?

when a topic is locked no one can reply anymore.
