I could hazzard a guess and I didnt close it.

But I agree, a post should always be put in regardless.

Unless it's blindingly obvious why it's being locked - so obvious that posting an explanation would be like telling all the other users they're stupid.

First question: Are you really clueless as to why that particular thread was locked?

Next question: Really?

For what it's worth, I agree with you. I think I should explain by means of series of photographs with sock puppets and cut-out speech bubbles explaining why a thread was locked. No need to hit the "thanks", I'm here to help.
