Please.

However if they contain personal info, such as the IPs, please PM them to me rather than post here. Thanks.

Now I woke just under 6 hours later and was greeted with a reply after the thread was locked by me
The thread was updated to this

According to your security log there's no record of you ever locking the thread at the time of this post:
world-of-myrmecology.freeforums.net/post/9268/thread

As for this post, I'm pretty sure he's just yanking your chain:
world-of-myrmecology.freeforums.net/post/9269/thread

Your security log records every staff action performed on the forum with no exceptions. There is never an instance where it misses a staff action. Based on that we can conclude that:

- The thread was never locked at the time of this post
- The mention of unlocking the thread in this post is a joke/lie
- The thread was finally locked around 11 hours and 30 minutes ago

The member in question has no power on the forum. The thread was never unlocked because that would've required it to be locked to begin with.

You will see a block of me at the 19 hour mark editing my replays before locking the thread (it's easy trying not to be overly rude).an hour later the member is able to edit the post 

I relocked the threads in the morning,put the forum into maintenance mode made my post here

Unless you disabled their account in the security log entry for "Edited staff options" none of the actions in the entries in that screenshot would've prevented the user from posting in the thread.

The thread was locked the moment after I typed thread locked and saved my quote
I have just unblock the user and moved the locked thread back to the forum.. guess there is only way to find out what happened after I logged out for the night ? This goes against my better judgement tho

The security log doesn't reflect that action. Therefore, the thread wasn't locked at the time of that post.

I can state this over and over again but the fact of the matter is the security log will tell you whether or not you took an action at a specific time on the forum. If there's no entry in your security log that explicitly states "Locked thread The Forum Needs A Better Design" at the time you made that post it means the thread was never locked at that time. The security log doesn't miss a single staff action performed on the forum.

Sorry you replied while I updated my last post.i have unblocked the user and moved the locked thread back to the forum.should be interesting to see what happens

Hey their dayshaddow, I just seen you post. Me and my friends had a similar situation. About a week later, the forum was demolished and we toook it offline ourselves. Wasn't a big deal cuz it wasn't big yet. Howeveveer I honestly just wouldn't make him/her upset tbh to be on the safe side. I seen in the screenshots he/she hasn't "done anything wrong." Buut just be careful. Also i wouldn't say there is a good chance it's one of your older banned mebers, or they would have donne this long ago. Probably just some other (smart (?) )trouble makker. (if they have caused any trouble) How big is your forum?

logandektin, if you simply want to converse, you should probably take that to PM.
