The only purpose I can see applies in the cases I listed above, so no one can change correct information.
In all other cases it's just like you say, it locks out correct or missing information. |

Ok, maybe this discussion starts to get a bit pointless. Perhaps I should just shut up, but I just don't understand.
Is it a real problem that happens every now and then: People that changes correct information so it becomes wrong?
...and, in any case, is it really so common so it outweighs all those occasions when people want to add info, but the entry is locked? |

I just don't understand why people do not PM me, I have offered my help thousand times.
I don't think Perff is going to disable the ability to lock entries or change this system anytime soon... |

The problem with PM is that its a big obsticle, motivation killer, and adds a delay in the submittion cycle.
Think about it, your completely into your adding, its like a trance, nearly everything is done by automatic, add release, add group, upload release, add credtis, you notice that this perticular person was a group of ABC, have to add it, and boom, you run into a locked entry, crap, dead end, no time to send pm to Nafcom/Perff. Hell, I add the screeenshot and take care of that group connection later. Then you start over with a new release.
The problem is that later hardly ever comes.... . . |

Well, there is nothing I can do about it really, I am not member of the CSDb crew. Anyway, the entry got modified as requested by Zyron by PM. |

Iopop, you can always add a new scener to a locked group from the edit screen of the new scener. The only thing that doesn't work is connecting a locked scener with a locked group, but as long as only one of the two connecting pieces is locked it always works. |

I know, I've been forced to remove 'illegal' members from the Focus status several times ;) |

steppe: Yes, I know. Have used that sometimes. So my ramblings above would reflect the situation Zyron was having with Mega.
