Why do you keep locking threads?

Hey Ricoo_01,

Threads are normally locked due to some violation or another of the
Xbox Forums Guidelines, in general; however, many times it is due to new posts reviving older threads.

Hope this information helps you understand the forums a bit better.

Happy gaming!

Threads are locked by official staff or forum moderators, usually because a thread is a few months old, and is no longer relevant, or the issue was solved and is locked to prevent repetitive answers. If you have a problem yourself, make a new thread, so
someone can help with your issue.

It's hard to tell why the thread was locked. More than likely it was locked to keep from turning into just a giant argument thread (which wasn't your fault, but is not allowed on the forums).

Unfortunately, Homegrown was correct though. There's not anyone on the forums who can really provide any sort of resolution or explanation for you. You would have to continue to try working with support directly, but even they may not be able to do anything
since the hard drive was not an official drive.

I like they way threads about it keep getting locked as well 'there's plenty of threads like this around' no there isn't because you keep locking them all

& you can be quite effective protecting your privacy

Some threads are locked out by the moderators if they are old or have degenerated to something beyond what the original post was supposed to be. That will be why some threads do not allow you to post in them.
