1. Only moderators and administrators can lock a thread.

Post a link to the locked thread, so we'll know what needs to be done next, if anything.

I checked your profile and I could not find any thread that was locked by your account. There was threads, which you participated in, that were locked by moderators. You cannot delete/edit posts in a locked thread, and I suspect you may have not noticed the thread was locked until it didn't allow you to delete/edit your content.
As mentioned, only Administrators, or moderators of their assigned forum where the thread resides, can lock threads.
If you still believe you locked the thread, send me a link and I'll check the thread history.

You can't unlock them. You'll have to send a PM to one of these moderators and ask them to delete the post for you in the C6 Parts for Sale forum:
Grumpy, pewter99, HummelS, ALLTHROTTLE&NOBOTTLE, Tact, LV Vette, jersey jay, mvcrash, TN 2005 C6
Likewise, you'll have to send a PM to one of these moderators for the post in C6 General:
Grumpy, ShanMan14, pewter99, HummelS, ALLTHROTTLE&NOBOTTLE, Tact, LV Vette, jersey jay, mvcrash, TN 2005 C6

You did not lock that thread. The thread was locked by moderator petwer99 on 09:52, 4th Jun 2008
You cannot lock threads, nor can you unlock threads. This is a function only to staff.
You will need to contact one of the moderators of that forum (Grumpy, ShanMan14, pewter99, HummelS, ALLTHROTTLE&NOBOTTLE, Tact, LV Vette, jersey jay, mvcrash, TN 2005 C6 ) or an Administrator such as Savewave. They likely will not unlock the thread as it was locked for a reason.
Explain the situation to them.

The above was locked from 05/2008. Thread is too old to be unlocked plus your not the original post starter.
Have no idea about the other thread you refered to??????

This is the other thread the OP is referring to:

The threads don't really need to be unlocked, as the user is just wanting to delete his posts but cannot because once a thread is locked, all content cannot be edited or deleted.

I was speaking from the standpoint as a user. A user cannot edit or delete content once the thread is locked. Moderators are exempt of this, of course.
This is why the user wants the threads opened, so he can remove the content in his posts of the locked thread. Notice that's what he was doing.
Yes, I noticed you deleted his post, per his request. I could have done so, too,
but that's a moderator decision and I don't go there. You have checked my account, right?
