Did I do something incorrectly?Yes. When you post a thread, make sure to click the "Unlock thread" checkbox. You screwed up.

Address your question to the Admin Moderator.
Most locked threads I've seen got that way because the article has already been posted by someone else.

I was terribly embaressed.As well you should be. But the people who really strike me as incompetant are those people who post a thread without clicking the "Do not pull thread" button. The thread is then pulled from the forum in about 5 minutes.
Idiots.

Yes. When you post a thread, make sure to click the "Unlock thread" checkbox. You screwed up. That's not a very nice thing to do, Laz. :=)
Alia, Send a Freepmail to Admin Moderator asking for an explanation. There's usually one posted when the thread is locked. Yours was probably just a duplicate of another thread.

That's not a very nice thing to do, Laz. :=)The words "That's not a very nice thing to do" and "Laz" appear in the same sentence often, around here.

Generally it means that someone has already posted the article.

Yes. That's a big faux pas. (Pardon me for using French.)
The one I didn't know about till a few days ago was the auto-bump feature. I was going in and manually bumping my threads. I've now got it set on my user preferences.
