Just looking down the list of topics as I have not visited this site for a while and noticed all the topics relating to a Musical have been locked. Does anyone know the reason? For instance I looked at the Miss Saigon thread and there is no malice or defaming remarks and it has been locked? There have been alot worse threads that have not been locked. Just interested in the reason.

Nothing untoward.

Topics used to remain open for comments for ever. This seemed to occasionally cause confusion with people contributing to topics months or years after the discussion had finished.

I recently set the site up to automatically close topics three months after they're opened. 

There are plenty of open Musical threads, you may just be reading them ranked to display older closed threads first - clicking on the column titles in the forum list view. Try this link:

Hope this helps!

:-) 

Cheers
