    I don't think so...
    locked threads aren't necessarily locked because they're unintelligent, they're often locked because they're purpose is completed, and are in danger of being derailed.

    If a thread is locked because it's cesspool material, then it will be deleted or cesspooled anyway.

    And it's not like they're clogging the place up - if a thread gets no posts, it drops off the list after a while.

    Who cares if you make him mad? It was just a vote. Choose what you feel is right.

    Anyway I voted "no" because there is no point to it. Plus I think that, in a small way, it would just call attention to the threads that were deemed worthy of lock.

    Don't worry, it was worth asking the question.
    Suggestions are always worth it, even when no one else thinks they're a good idea

    How about we make 9 levels of cesspool---- the 3rd level could be dedicated to locked treads.

    Level 1..... those threads that look like they may eventually go into the cesspool, but it could go either way--- so they stick em there just in case

    Level 2 is threads that have completely gone off topic, and no longer deserve to be in any other forum. The mod issued a warning, but nobody is in any trouble.

    Level 3 is for locked threads. They now sit there --- never changing for all to see.... depressing examples of idiocy frozen in place.

    Level 4 is for all the crackpot threads about 'get rich quick' scemes, or plans for secret superpowerful lairs where all the geniuses hang out.

    Level 5 is for all the posts from racists, sexists, or any other absurd threads started by a class of people with a hate agenda.

    Level 6 is for spam

    Level 7 is for threads where members insult other members, or threads intentionally started with the intent of causing drama.

    Level 8 is for threads started by people whose discussion was so heinous that they were banned.

    Level 9... The deepest level of the cesspool where the fallen angel himself-- s.....um......satan resides. His hands flap eternally...producing an unstoppable flood of completely pointless and annoying threads...forever populating that level of the cesspool with topics of unspeakable horror.
