Auto thread lock?

[mtlcore]

Is there a mod out there that does auto locking threads within certain forums?

vb search feature doesn't help. even google'd it, all I got was zeropaid's site.

lol, this is amazing, the moment i post i see similar threads (and the mod i was looking for!!) - that's the best vb feature ever!

Ok, this mod doesn't do what I want.

Perhaps you should explain exactly what you want then.

Ok, I would like a mod that would automatically lock a thread that is created in specific forum categories. This is especially because many newbies post in the wrong forums and then mods have to move these threads to the correct forum, which just adds more work for the mods. This way, if the threads are locked, the newbies will slowly learn to post in the correct forum.
I am already using Cyb's new thread mod, still these newbies post in the wrong forum.

There is a simple option to close the thread after you've posted it on the newthread.php page. Otherwise you could just disable registered users from posting in that forum, which has the same effect as locking it. (Assuming there is no need for any post at all from normal users.)

Surely you would also lock any thread correctly posted as well
