For A8Tool from the urban dictionary:

in before lock 

 What posters on a message boards will sometimes say in response to a thread/topic that will eventually be locked/closed. This is a way to show that the thread is incredibly dumb or goes against the rules of the message board. Used to sometimes get in a free post to raise one's post count before the topic gets locked, preventing any further posting in it.
 
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

It also tends to be somewhat juvenile, pointless, and repetitive.

But it takes all kinds, and if thats what it takes to float your boat, knock yourself out.

It's really overused in these forums.  It now appears in almost every thread just to help people pad their post count.  Why?  Who knows.

I think Bald felt the need to defend himself  :rofl

http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/topic,250565.0.html   

 And I STILL don't understand the geeky need to be in a thread before it locks   :rolleyes:

I just can't figure out this in b4 the lock crap.


  What is the purpose??   

I was here, read this and got away with posting a few useless words In before the administrator locked it down and threw away the key??  I mean WTF?Huh??  Just makes no sense to me. Must be a dork thing.

Anyway, give yourself a big thumbs up and pat on the back for making it in. ROFL!

Who even looks at post count?  They should remove everything but the name and maybe avatar.  If you want to know anything else about someone, you click on the profile link.  Otherwise it's just clutter..
