• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

How to lock a thread I started?

I used to be able to lock a thread I created (and have even done it once), and I thought it was an option in the Thread Tools menu, but now I can't seem to find a way to do it anymore. The options I have in Thread Tools now are Show Printable Version, Email This Thread, Subscribe To This Thread and Add A Poll To This Thread.

The thread I want to lock is here.
 
There was a brief window where it was accidentally turned on for a very large group of users, but that has since been corrected. Currently you can only close your own threads under the following conditions:

-You are a General Mayhem subscriber. Genmay subscribers can lock any of their own threads, in any forum.
-You happen to be posting in a forum where it's enabled for all users. Currently that's only turned on in FS/FT and it's TTT subforum.

Outside of those situations, users are not able close threads. If you have one you would like closed, just PM the appropriate moderator for that particular forum, and they may close it for you, depending on the circumstance. I went ahead and locked the thread you linked.
