Can a thread be unlocked but no one can post in it?

[stui magpie]

Like for example, the great big Travis Cloke thread could be left unlocked for all intents and purposes, but everytime someone tried to post something in it and hit submit, it wouldn't work and when they went back to the thread, their post hadn't been posted?

When said poster then went to complain they could be told there was nothing wrong with the site, they should maybe check their browser settings, or run a malaware scan over their PC or sundry other distractions to confuse them.

If there is a way to do this, I heartily encourage the mods to experiment with this

Second suggestion, could someone tweak the swear filter so that every time someone typed Travis Cloke it was replaced with "Copeland Trophy winning Premiership Key Position Forward who will sign his contract when he's good and ready"

Both suggestions just to basically mess with peoples heads.

Mods have to have some fun some time too don't you?

Yes, please do this. That's a classic!!!
It confused me enough when there was something about cheese in VPT & I typed C.O.O.N. cheese & it came out as "I am racist cheese"
