Filter thread by "Not Locked"

[code API]

Hey guys,
So I was just looking at some threads, especially the Review copy threads. I noticed Some open threads are buried within a list of closed threads.

As most of the threads are already closed or locked, I think it would make sense if there is a feature that allows you to filter a subforum by its LOCKED or OPEN status. This would make life easier for potential reviewers to quickly see open threads and quickly respond to them. Most people are already busy and have limited attention span I would imagine.

What do you think? And yes this goes to the super admin @Diamond Damien
Thank you for this excellent forum.

yeah, i just saw the review section yesterday, the interesting ones were all locked... so I gave up

Maybe mods instead of locking them could remove them entirely

Do you mean in FRC section or the regular Service Reviews & Beta Testers Help Wanted?

Locked in Free review copy section means it was given away. There's only 1 review copy available for that top-level package

Do you mean in https://www.blackhatworld.com/forums/free-review-copies-for-marketplace-approvals.303/ or the regular https://www.blackhatworld.com/forums/service-reviews-beta-testers-help-wanted.165/?

Both actually. My suggestion in the original post applies to both.

I posted something similar some time ago, and I'm gonna use this opportunity to ask if some things have changed since then, or was were the rejections of implementing such a feature:

Review copy is just for a limited time

To address the main query here - we had an internal discussion about how we should approach this and the team agreed that we'll create a new subforum to move all locked threads from Free review copies to that new forum (PS: Please note that this will only apply to the Free review copies subforum). You would still be able to browse those that were given away, but the threads will be locked.

This way, only those that are available will be open to replies in Free review copies subforum.

This has not been accomplished yet, but it's on our TODO list and will get done as soon as we can.

Asked - Answered - Closed.
