Picking the lock on a closed thread.

Bradidup · 2007-03-23 10:28:47

I am wondering how secure those little pad locks are that the mods use to close threads? Has anyone ever picked them?

Yeah you can open them easy enough, just highlight the lock, right click and select re-open..

Or

The real question is
how long do you think it will take for you to get banned?

Hopefully soon, with this type of threat and warning being posted in threads that have nothing to do with Christianity.

That Amstel Noah’s ark add had very much to with Christianity, It was very offensive to Christian believers as it made light of the Word of God in the book of Genesis and I had every right to voice an opinion on it in the marketing forum where the thread was placed..

Anyway this topic is totally off the subject on the thread security of this website.

Not in the marketing Forum you didn't, and certainly not by posting threats and warnings. You could feel free to start a thread in the Christianity Forum where it belonged, and that would be an appropriate place to air your grievances. It didn't win you any friends for sure.

But you're right, that would be taking this thread OT just like you took that one OT. Questioning how to bypass the Mod and Admin's authority on this site is also not a good way to make friends when you're new to the site.

Well the subject is very much constructive for the mod & admin. As already stated tampering will result in banning, couldnt get more clearer than that. Im sure more warnings will be added.

I suggest you think first before posting another thread.
