Quick Reply does not show in Closed Thread even to Mods (Mini-Hack)
I found it annoying that even though staff close threads, the Quick Reply still shows up for staff because staff can always reply to closed threads. This caused staff to keep posting because some staff miss the fact that the thread is closed.
This is a mini-hack to make the Quick Reply not show up for everyone when a thread is closed. Staff can still reply by clicking on the "Closed" button.
A quick mod to showthread.php:
Find:
Change to:
Done! 
Remember, when changing code WITHIN a query, don't add comments around the change. That would cause a parse error.
