Locked Threads and the purpose of

[azureline**]

I am a bit puzzled by the locking of threads and would like clarification of the reasons for it.

It used to be that threads not within the rules of CS were just removed and not seen again. Is there a point to keeping them here so they can still be read or is there another reason?

Thank you in anticipation 🙂

i was told the locked threads remain for a period of time so everyone knows it was locked and why, then it is removed

if and where it may be related to inappropriate sub judice content/publication ...it's the fact that it would be on the site that would be the concern ?

it may be a complete ban until after the event ? not just the guidelines and laws which apply to what other media sources can publish and not publish and at what stages they can and can't do it.
