			By default we have automatic inactivity lock (30 days with no replies) on all posts. This is by design to help with spam prevention. Reminder unlock only clears locked; the topic is still "stale", so automation or a visitor viewing the thread can lock it again. Sticky topics are never auto-locked.

			However, we do have a forum setting for inactivity auto-lock (under Security Settings) - off or 7-365 days (30 days is default); and also per-topic "Don't auto-lock" in Manage Posts (unlock will also keep a topic open until there’s a new reply) which you can adjust at anytime.
