a mod can lock a "subthread" in a thread. think of it as you can reply to anyone else in the thread, and maybe even those people, but they don't want you to quote and/or discuss those posts. they might be in the process of deleting them too

Copy what you want to quote and then reply to the thread. Works for me.

Ya this works..

Mods shouldnt be allowed to leave a post up and not have it be able to be replied to. If it is ok enough for all to see, it should be ok to be replied to.

I think it's a mechanism by which they want to discourage that train of thought.

Yep. I'm 100% anti-lock, as I have said many times. Delete, edit, but never lock. Locking lets the trolls become the moderator. I've been modding the very busy site AppleInsider.com for about 2 years now, without a single lock. Plenty of deletes and bans, but never a lock.
