How to close thread?

[amorosik]

What is the correct way to close a thread?

If you are the OP then use the Solved option at the top:

No, i am not discussing the Solved mark
Then 'normal user' cannot close a thread?
A moderator write to me that 'as a thread starter' is possible to close a thread

If a thread has a question related to the thread subject, and the question has one or more responses, then we do not close the thread since the responses could help another poster/reader at another time.

The 'thread starter', a normal user of the forum, can close the thread?

There may be some ambiguity around the question of "closing" a thread. Do you mean that you want to prevent any further responses to an existing discussion, i.e."locking" it? Or do you mean that you want to indicate that you are satisfied with the responses and consider the original problem solved?

Locking

If you want a thread locked you could try asking one of the moderators. This happens occasionally when things go off the rails. FYI, if you started the thread and are unhappy with it you can delete the whole thread.
