Devorath Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 I was just wondering, is it bad to have a topic you created locked? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Takuma Nuva Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 That depends entirely on why the topic was locked.If the topic was breaking the rules, yeah, obviously it's not a good thing.Topics aren't just closed when the topic starter breaks rules though. A member in the topic might post after the topic has expired, which breaks a rule.There's also topic closings that aren't bad whatsoever. For example, after your question has been fully answered and/or taken care of, this topic will be closed same as all Q&A topics.Some topic starters may also ask to have their topics locked.«Takuma Nuva» If The Good Lord had intended us to walkHe would not have invented roller skates.-- Willy Wonka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blessed Blade Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 (edited) Not all the time. For example, after this question has been answered, the topic will be locked.However, if your topic is closed because it broke the rules, then yes, it's not that good. But for the majority of topics that are closed, it's just for reasons like something being done(Like RPGs), a question being answered(Like this), or as a request, for say, comics or epics or the like.The main time you really have to worry is if it's closed because of it breaking the rules, as natural deaths and being locked are fine. =) However, if it's locked because it's been revived, that mostly just reflects back on the person who revived it (unless it was by accident, of course, like being that one day late, on a month with 31 days instead of 30), and shouldn't be worried about by the topic creator either.Hope that answers your question. =)/EDIT: Takuma, you're a world class ninja; I didn't even see you in the member list. =P Edited July 9, 2012 by Pit: Arrow of Light The Pokemon TopicPokemon: Rise of the Rockets - Rise of the Rockets Discussion Topic - Rise of the Rockets Side Stories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
