Gold Locks

First off: Sorry of it's in the wrong section, I didn't think any other sections would be suitable for this question. It's about the forums, so it wouldn't go into Server Questions.
Anyway, here's my question. What's the difference between a reqular locked topic (silver lock icon) and a topic with a gold lock icon?
If you're curious as to what I'm talking about, look at the lock icon next to this topic for instance:
'Ban Appeal' by dezzilol. What's the difference between the two locks?
Cheers, MaxJ2001

I don't see a difference between all those topics. Read/unread perhaps? You are using the red/grey theme, right?

The grey squares are already viewed topics by you.
The red squares are topics that have not been viewed by you.
Then....
The grey Locks are locked topics that you've already viewed.
The gold locks are locked topics that you have not viewed yet.
Hope this helps!

When you have viewed a topic (grey box) and then it has a grey lock it means an op or higher has locked the topic with no reply.

Not really op+ and up people are just players who have been promoted in game and have the ability to edit,lock,ban...ect. Stuff like that
For an example this topic is completely unessesary and may get locked. you could have asked someone in game for information like this.
