Close Threads

Is it possible, or would it be possible to give the author of a thread the ability to close it?

Or to enable the author of a thread to prevent members from posting to it in a case of someone permanently posting off topic, or continually agitating other members.

Obviously this is a main duty of moderators, but this would help keep threads on topic and prevent people from reducing some quite good discussion to petty arguments that are directed at individuals.

Just a thought.

I hear what your saying, But i dont think that will happen as of yet,

But what to do is if you have a thread you wanted locked or your thread is going of topic, please u2u a mod thats online at that time, We will be more than happy to assist you,

Also you can use the suggestions tab, which will make us aware of the thread in question,

Also feel free to u2u me if you have any questions, im on pretty much alot of the time,

A Moderator or Super-Moderator is never farther than a U2U away.

I don't see a need for delegating this particular power.
