The forum threads aren't set to lock after a determined amount of replies have been reached.

From a technical standpoint, we lock them as it serves the goal of quicker loading times because Fandom's platform is slow and outdated. To summarise it, the higher the number of replies, the longer the waiting time is to load the site.

From a modding standpoint, it's easier to find a comment in a forum discussion of 100 replies than it is to find one in a thread of 400.
