Bigred Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 What constitutes a Thread to be locked and what is the purpose of locking a thread .Sorry if its a dumb question but just a bit confused on the matter . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderIdeal Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 based on requests you've made to have threads locked, you might be getting it confused with pinning.a pinned thread will always be at the top of the subforum it resides in, no matter when it was posted to last.a locked thread is basically "closed", members can no longer post to it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sallubrious Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 If it's relevent to the pharmacology & chemistry forum you could post it there, other than I don't think it's possible for a normal user without access to the back room that doesn't exist <___base_url___>/uploads/emoticons/default_newimprovedwinkonclear.gifYou could start a post and create the text as an image in a paint program and then upload that as the body of your post and it wouldn't be visible unless logged in, but the thread title would still readable to anyone. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northerner Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 Hey, I'm having troubles finding the roolz guys. Not that I want to see how heavy I can troll people. Just want to know the etiquette on which plants we can and can't discuss, what we can go into details with what we can do with these plants etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderIdeal Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 i think they used to be featured prominently somewhere but i found this in a chill space sticky: Posting Rules 1) Do not incriminate yourself or others. 2) Please be friendly and supportive (no insults). 3) Racism, homophobia, or any other bigotry will not be tolerated. 4) Commercial postings are permitted as long as they are relevant and not obtrusive. 5) Trading and advertising items for sale is welcome and encouraged!! 6) Provide a valid and accurate climate, or a location from which climate can be deduced. and specific to the cactus forum found in a sticky there: DONT INCRIMINATE YOURSELF! Means no posts about anything illegal, including owning cacti that are illegal in your state or that are illegal to own or import into your country/state. This is also means that posts which depicture a plant/plants that is/are illegal in the given state in your profile, are not allowed. NO DISCUSSION ABOUT INGESTION Means no posts in which you post about eating alkaloid containing cacti! And I really mean that and I will enforce this rule to prevent certain cacti from being banned. NO DISCUSSION ABOUT POTENCY AND MESCALINE CONTENTS No posts about which cacti contain the most alkaloids or something like that. Only exception are links to scientific labwork and in that case, discussion is not allowed and the thread will be instaclosed. Besides, all the rules from the other Boards are valid here too. No slander, shitposting, off-topic or crossposting, verbal abuse or trolling. hope this helps 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cimi Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 Hello, didn't think this little question deserved its own thread so just posting in here. I just attached a pic to a post but it's appearing sideways when posted to the forum even though the image itself is correctly rotated when I open it. Is there a way to rotate the pic once it's attached to my post? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
