Silly Bubbles
You cant pop them all
I understand that some topics are uncomfortable for moderators and it's much easier job for them to lock the threads. The problem is that in doing so the topic doesn't get resolved and is swept under the rug. People won't understand the reasons for things being the way they are by cutting the communication short and it's very likely that the same issue will come up again. Also, it's not against the Forum rules to talk about Forum rules.
Anyways, if you want players to understand and therefore let go of an issues, there needs to be communication. Locking thread only creates bitterness, grudges and confusion, especially when it's done before a proper discussion has been made. There are game supporters out there that can make good points to help resolve the issue given a chance.
