Particularly if thought was actually put into the thread/post, why not just move it to the right place? Of course if the thread/post is totally inane like "I like this band what do you think?" then yes, delete that garbage. If it's spam, of course delete it. But I'm running into quite a few locked threads recently where the post thought out or otherwise meaningful, so it seems like it would be more constructive to move it and send the person a PM (or not, if time is a concern) rather than just locking it.

If this has already been brought up, will I get locked or moved?
