Locked Threads

There should be a better way to tell if a thread is locked. The image below is a screenshot of a locked thread. The only way I can see that this thread is locked, is that a Moderator was the last to post. That's not a very good way to distinguish locked threads, and open threads.

The icon on the left has a >l if you've posted on it and it's locked. If it's locked and you haven't posted then the icon is a lock symbol.

Interesting. I believe the lock icon should just completely replace the "You've posted here, but it's also locked" icon, considering it doesn't really matter if you've posted in a locked thread, considering there will be no more discussion.

I think it would just make the Forums a little less confusing. I find myself reading whole threads, then finding out they're locked by the last post. You will then find me in a fetal position in the tub crying.

It's the same on every forum, I don't have any trouble to see if the thread is locked or not.
