I admit I read all locked threads. I use them as a personal guideline of behavior. I am amazed how much I learn by reading locked threads. I am shocked at how many people get offended by their thread being locked though. They should know that alot of us pay attention to a locked thread that wouldn’t have interested us in the slightest before.
