Well i'm just wondering if you could unblock a thread. I'm not asking you to but one day, i would probably ask you. Do you guys and girls (Moderators) ever do that?

to my knowledge it is possible for mods to unlock threads, but a lot of the time when a thread is locked it stays locked. The only time I have seen one unlocked for a long period of time(then I think it was locked later, because it no longer had any use) was to find a new judge for the art competition, and that was from what I can remember because of a misunderstanding. It is doubtful that they will unlock a thread or lock it for that matter without good reason. So if you ask them to unlock a thread then don't get your hopes up that they will do so.

Moderators and admins can unlock threads, but seeing as we are also the ones to lock it, it follows that it isn't easy to get a thread unlocked. Threads are locked because they are either repeat topics or don't contribute to the particular forum. If you feel like a thread of yours has been locked in error then look at the last post (usually the person will explain why they're locking the thread) and then ask that particular moderator/administrator. But we don't hastily lock threads, so odds are if a thread of yours is locked then it's for a good reason.
