I think the idea from Talon was to make them drop away from the buddy at least so that if they're locked for a reason such as having something really bad posted in them that people will not login the following day and see whatever got posted which was so bad that mods dropped the hammer on the thread as a whole.

Just that threads can't really be deleted on here I think so it's a handy tool in a way to make sure that trash that shouldn't be seen doesn't get seen. (by the masses I mean, obviously there's reasons sometimes where you might want to see what happened for a thread to go "over the limit" and get locked so of course a category to see them could be useful, I'm just explaining why they have been sent to that void from our buddy)

They don't just drop from your Buddy list but gone from the forum board, your posts are gone, etc...

My point was a lot of those threads contain great research and when similar threads come up, it sucks having to redo all that research again.  Being able to access them again for referencing would save a ton of time and build better debates. 

I can understand keeping them blocked from users not logged in though.

I'm not sure I follow what you mean here, locked threads are not deleted.

you can perfectly see every post which was made in a locked thread, but you need to go to the thread not using your buddy.

@Ka-pi96 what posts or threads have you had locked where you can't find them anymore? perhaps I could see the issue if there was something in mind in particular.
