Hopefully I'm not violating any rules here. I notice that the original post seems to be locked.
Here is a link that may add background and help clarify the original post:

Thanks for pointing this out. Must have been locked less than 24 hours ago. I didn't even know Logos forums could be locked, and I have no idea why that particular thread was locked.
I also read somewhere that Erasmus published notes on his work, these would be an excellent addition alongside his text.
Can anyone at Faithlife comment on what triggered the thread being locked? I both started the thread and made the last post before it was shut down, so I am uncertain whether it was locked because of me. I am not aware of any forum guideline that I violated, and if a violation did occur, it was in ignorance and without malicious intent. I am just trying to understand what happened, not to start an argument with Faithlife.
maybe my post locked the thread (I wrote the word B...W...)??I am not aware of any forum guideline that I violated, and if a violation did occur, it was in ignorance.
I do not believe that would have triggered it. Faithlife has said many times that merely mentioning a competitor is OK. Actively promoting a competitor would not be, but you did not do that. You just mentioned which font you used. I am really hoping we can get some sort of comment from Faithlife about what happened, or more precisely why it happened.
Generally, a deliberate and repeated violation of guidelines will get a reminder in the forum from a Faithlife employee or sometime other personal contact. Abusive behavior results in deletion or deletion with a locking of the thread when Faithlife believes it will not get back on track. A locking without a deletion or a message sounds to me most likely to be something that the software tagged as potential (hacker) commands and isolated waiting for human intervention ... perhaps something as innocent as a colon after a drive name without enough context to identify it as a URL? ...But, no, a simple mention of a competitor is not a violation nor would it cause a lockout.
Or are you sure it was a lockout ... could you have posted just as the system went down?
There is a picture of a lock on each post, as well as the word "locked."
