    If it has a key locking dial, there is a fairly good chance that it is a Group 2 lock by either Sargent and Greenleaf or LaGard. Either one will be this:

    DO NOT USE YOUR KEY LOCK TO SECURE YOUR SAFE!!! key locking dials are easy to pick.

    Are you referring to Rule#8 above?
    If so, how did you determine that his post was reviving an old thread for no reason?
    I, personally, found this part of his post had previously not been covered in the thread and is good to know.

    Correct. The rule is primarily to keep people from bringing some old news topic (for example) back to the top only to confuse everyone thinking it is something that just happened. Another example would be a heated thread that ran its course…then all of the sudden, months or years later, someone resurfaces it only to try to flare the fight back up again.

    Posting new threads on things that have been discussed in many, many other threads is also frowned upon. It makes far more sense to do a search, read…then post to that (old) thread if you have a question or new input beyond "yeah that!" or the like.

    I don't need Rule #8 explained to me. I just didn't agree that thread #11 was "re-commented on" for no reason since his post ended with an all caps warning to let the OP(Jackam) know that locking his safe the way he has been for 5 years was unsafe and easily picked which hadn't been brought up yet in the thread. The Good Reverend, in Post#12 used the term "reopening" an old thread. There are other rules regarding reopening locked threads so I was just curious what rule he was referring to due to his choice of nomenclature.

    I wasn't explaining it to YOU…I was AGREEING with YOU!

    I was EXPLAINING for the benefit of others.

    As for reopening locked threads…

    Nevermind!
