While I can completely and totally understand why you might not want to participate in that thread, I don't understand your desire to keep others from doing so if they wish to. No one is forced to be there. No one is forced to participate.

It really makes no more sense than if someone were to say 'Lock the thread "Last person to post here wins!" simply because there is virtually nothing at all being said in any coherent fashion in some 21,000 pages. Obviously, people want to participate. Why do you need to stop them?
