Forums → Support Forum → Why can't moderators delete locked topics?

they keep them there so that people can see why they were locked. if they delete a topic, they can't explain why the topic was deleted.

well maybe after 2 weeks im sure they'll know already???

no they dont keep them there so people see why it was locked.they keep them there because everyone who posted on there would lose alot of points.

No they can.

it's just that way they are kind of there to say "look at me, i was locked because of-" then whatever the reason was. It's just there as an example.

oh thanx theone99 now i understand

yep he explained it pretty good

We can delete them. However, when they are deleted, all of the posts will be erased, and the points for those posts will be lost. So if we go back and delete a bunch of locked threads, then people would start losing quite a few points.

yeah,they do have the power to delete topics.especially ones that get REALLY innapropiate.but then points *Poof*
gone.but thats what they get for immaturity.Well,and also sometimes there is a glitch that if you see a *blank*"Last post" then a toppic got deleted.

.but that's what they get for immaturity

i'm pretty sure they can delete posts. i know some of my posts have been deleted.

OK but I don't quite understand.The question was already answered,but yet usually mods would have already locked a thread like this by now.Anyways I would say something on topic,but since everything I would say,has already been said,then their is no point to it.

Well, I was waiting for it to die out, but oh well.
