I know this is going to sound a bit dumb to most users - but please bear with me - I am new to all this, but why is a topic locked?

Hi Webby,

Welcome to RootsChat.

There are no dumb questions,  asking a question is the quickest way to knowledge.  Grin  And it is what RootsChat is for.

Topics are locked to stop people replying to them. Usually because we want you to ask a question in a different place.  It can be a it confusing until you are used to RootsChat.  But there is a method to our madness.

Which topic are you asking about?

BTW,  I was just composing an FAQ for this question.  Grin

Thank you Kazza for your quick reply - I was just interested to know about the locked topics - I have seen a few items when I have been looking around the site.

It certainly is a little confusing but no doubt I will get the hang of it eventually.

Webby,

Take a look at my Guided Tour:

http://www.rootschat.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=3996.msg8241#msg8241

And keep coming back to this How To Use......section.  I will be adding to it over the next few days and once you are more familiar with the site,  it is a doddle.  Grin
