Re: Making a topic Read only
You can also click on "edit thread" in the top right. After you've made a thread, go back into the new thread and click through that link to get a submenu that offers check boxes like "notice" and "close thread." If you check "close thread," the thread will be locked to everyone but GMs, but still visible to the thread's group. If you check both "notice" and "close thread," it will be locked and also pinned to the top of the thread list.
