I agree with you, thread locking was a rampant problem on reddit and isn't something that belongs on saidit ideally. Problem users should be removed individually, I see no real reason to ever lock a thread.

We do have the capability for it, as our threads auto-lock at 9999 days (can we change that to 999999 days btw?)

Please look that up for me. Also look into the crazy ass hot algorithm math. It's all based off of a date in 2006 or something. As the codebase gets older, the algorithm skews?

lmao I hope not, that's goofy as heck. I think the setting is in that configuration.ini file that you set with 'make ini'

It's a new type of lock I didn't even know about. Go reddit, get that badspeech.

haha yeah they have so many ways of shadowbanning and locking and blocking that we don't have. It's like what they spent most of 2015-2018 developing lol
