I'd prefer that they weren't able to delete them though.

They aren't.

I don't care if people are able to lock their own threads.  I'd prefer that they weren't able to delete them though.

Just because you started a thread does not mean you should have control over when other people must stop talking in it. That's not how discussions work face to face and it's not how it ought to work here. JMHO.

Perhaps an exception should be made when a person posts a thread in an appropriate specific subforum about their own Bitcoin business, but certianly not for general discussion about things like 'bitcoin users should never call the police'.

Start a second thread with "continued" in the title and finish the discussion there...

The locked feature is great. In that case, that you're typing about, just shows he was wrong, got mad and locked it :/. Don't need to deal with it anymore. Problem solved.
