 Notification by PM when user's thread is locked
Some people might wonder where their threads went and then repost. This would result in the user getting slapped with an infraction.
I know that most locked threads linger for a while before being moved to the Graveyard, but I think this still should get implemented. In this case, people who wait a week or so before checking back for an answer can get notified that whatever bad/redundant thread was started was locked.
Also, a user wouldn't need to start another thread asking ZOMG Y WUZ MAI THRED LOKKED???!!!oneoneone
DDR:UK has a "You have had a post deleted from the forums" PMing feature like this. It's kind of useful sometimes.
An example of this could be like this:
Dear ______,
You have had one of your threads deleted/locked/merged with another user's.
Reason: Redundant/Ugly/Illegal/Inane/Inappropriate/Whatever
Cause to change your posting habits: Yes/No/Maybe
Thank you,
[insert staff member here]

Does anyone with actual, tangible influence think that my idea has any merit?
