Even Atlas wasn't that desperate to pitch a bad idea.
I see it that they are just using those 1 post locked threads like free advertising. Hoping to fool 0.1% of Bitcoin traffic to prop up their dying experiment in centralized control.
A locked thread with no replies is useless to a discussion forum and should be deleted. Shouldn't be made in the first place actually, warn then ban IMO.
Righto, mr Bear. 
I was thinking about that myself earlier when I checked that forum, it bothers me too seeing a bunch of locked threads with 0 replies. With CH doing it three times in the past two days alone, just seems like they're gonna keep doing it unless something is done.

So the SolidCoin folks have been creating 1-post locked threads announcing stuff.
Putting aside how you feel about SolidCoin, I wonder what other people think about that practice in general. It seems to me to go against the purpose of "Forums" -- seems to me the whole point is discussion. If you don't want discussion, then buy an ad or publish information on your website.
Seems to me locking threads should be a last resort instead of "I'll just lock every thread I make to keep out the trolls."
I'm going to lock this thread now because I think some people will disagree with me.
(KIDDING, JUST KIDDING)
