The End
‘The conscious is cancerous if allowed to linger’
"Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there."
I have never bothered locking them, but this is probably the underlying logic:
Locked topics quickly lose their Top Forum Topic position. The Classifieds, due to its purpose, is prone to Top Forum Topic manipulation. Locking the threads prevents some groups from having a monopoly of such threads (through a concerted "save thread" effort), by keeping the Top Forum Topic requirements relatively low, it also ensures a frequent turnover of adverts.
