I can possibly fathom a couple of reasons why my thread might have been locked, but I mean, subtract time required to actually read a post, and then time required to consider for a few seconds whether or not it should be locked, and you end up with what seems to be an automated response based on terms used in the given thread.
Posts that are moderated have a reason behind the moderation. It's up to you to read the forum Code of Conduct and these guidelines to determine what you did wrong, learn from your mistake, and attempt to post again without breaking any rules.
Before it's posted, I already know about this rule. Nothing I did in my post warranted a knee-jerk lock. What more, I have sincere doubts that it was even subject to human judgment; this seemed strictly automated, and I would really like to know what set off the auto-lock code, even though I can probably form a guess.
