Hide Locked Threads

[Deleted member 169486]

I suggest that there should be an option so you don't see locked threads. I normally go through the forums and find the 30 - 50 percent of threads are locked.

EDIT: Look, what I mean is that when you go through a subforum you just don't see the ones that are locked. I know some people like seeing them that's why I said an OPTION. The reason why I want to see this is because I don't want to scroll through 10+ locked threads per open one. You could still see locked threads, maybe similar to when you have a user ignored it says 'show blocked messages' accept for threads.

I love the idea, but then sticky threads would need to be unlocked.

Have an option for staff to keep certain post unhidden?

I dunno, Cubecraft doesn't have a 'settings' section from my understanding so I dunno.

I like this idea, what do you mean, sticky threads?

I don't like this. People can grow better ideas by looking at locked threads and they can learn other things such as necro-posting rules.

Sticky threads are the ones always at the top of the thread list as shown here

I don't know about it. I feel like locked threads are good to reference in newer threads.

Also, you do know that they do delete certain threads right?
Also, what's the point of this?
None of the threads really need to be hidden anyways...

I love this idea! I have no comment to say, this will be amazing if this gets added. @Tacosbefriends @Mac

Because when I go on the forums I don't want to scroll past 10+ locked posts to find one unlocked one?

I remember suggesting something similar to this when I first joined the forums. I wanted a feature to mark all locked threads as read and I hope that gets added in the eventual forums update. :D

Just look down at the new posts...

 

[agent320]

no... This would ruin most of @hgbf s profile page ...

You can always click "Watch forum", then you'll get an alert whenever made a new thread in that section :)

I don't think this should be added though, since then the search feature would become pretty much useless. For example, someone wants to suggest adding parties, looks it up and sees that it has already been suggested, etc. Adding this basically means that there would come even more spam than there already is.

Actually, I think someone has already made a script for this (@MagnificentSpam , I think). If you search through some old threads, you might find it ;)

Lock threads are where questions are answered (most of the time) bug threads too, and to refrain from creating duplicate threads (repeated questions) .. they could just search up about it.
If they somehow messed with their settings and disabled locked threads, they're going to think no one has questioned stuff/things/etc and you're gonna see lots of questions thread that have already been answered/resolved being made.
I don't think this is really necessarily.

 

[Deitnerb]

I don't like the idea. Locked threads still contain useful information and can still be helpful. The other day I used one of my replies in a locked thread on another forum to fix my computer :P.

Now guys we do have to keep in mind he is suggesting a setting option not an all out change.
