    When threads are closed it is still possible to "participate" to the thread by Rating the Posts in it. I think that this shouldn't be possible as when it's closed... it's closed.

    It could also be classified as Rate Abuse in some ways. I have seen this suggestion posted once before and I definitely agree with this as it will resolve a lot of issues and just tidy things up a tad.

    I'm not rude, just telling a fact. They can't change it and the only solution I know is already in use (banning).
    That's why I nosupport

    I don't think you've been rude either. But if I get it right, you don't support something solely because you deem it technically not doable. This beats the definition of the word "Support".

    It's easy to fix, you can disable ratings in sections of the forums. Therefore Cyp can go on and remove the capability to rate in the section this applies to.

    On the other hand if you mean locked threads then this cannot work.

    So neutral depending on how you want this to work out

    Yes, I often see this kind of threads and always know it's not gonna happen but still people continue repeating it. Unless there is a certain plugin supporting it, it's unnecessary to do a suggest it. This might sound rude but I believe that this may help future post to get even more realistic because there is no point to waste energy on something that won't lead to anything in my opinion.
    Btw you know it's mutable to fake quote right?

    OK now Krissy has confirmed it is not doable to remove Rating capabilities from locked threads, this can be closed. But it would be much appreciated that an eye is kept on it should the forum engine allow such modification one day.

    I don't think that a Suggestion should be rated by its feasability. This one is needed, unfortunately it's not doable. But if you don't Support, it might not be implemented the day it might well be doable (well I exagerate, but you get the Point). This is what I expressed through my "fake quote", which is, btw, not mentioned with a single word in the Forum rules.

    Common sense, I think it's pretty obvious that faking messages are illegal. Krissy hope you can confirm this

    Might be, but since it wasn't done in an abusive way, but as a paraphrase... also, by clicking on the arrow above the Quote, you are redirected to the original, which makes it impossible to purposefully make fake quotes.

    OK this is all too OT, if you want to discuss it, PM me, if you want you can invite Krissy as well.

    well it was used against me, wasn't it?
    You faked a quote of me saying that I don't care about world peace. That is abusing in my eye and you should in my opinion receive a punishment for your action.

    I will say that your expression of Gentleman through a fake quote may not have been the most appropriate road to take in this type of debate/argument situation.

    Fake quoting is not against the rules, so long as the quote does not break any other of the forum rules. Punishments then occur accordingly.
