In summary, there could be various reasons why you are unable to respond to your own thread, such as technical issues or restricted settings. However, you should still be able to edit or delete your thread, and other users can still respond to it. If you are still unable to respond, it's best to contact the website administrator or moderator for assistance.

If it's concerning the Question about CERN thread, that's been locked. It means that the thread has been locked by a Mentor or Administrator.

Looks like it is back open. Likely was closed for some cleaning.
 

1. Why can't I respond to my own thread?

There could be a few reasons why you are unable to respond to your own thread. It could be a technical issue on the website or forum, or it could be a setting that restricts users from responding to their own posts. It's best to reach out to the website administrator or moderator for assistance.

2. Can I edit or delete my own thread if I can't respond to it?

Yes, in most cases, you should be able to edit or delete your own thread even if you can't respond to it. Look for the options to edit or delete your post within the thread or contact the website administrator for help.

3. Is there a limit to how many times I can respond to my own thread?

Most websites or forums do not have a limit on how many times you can respond to your own thread. However, it's always a good idea to check the website's rules or guidelines to be sure.

4. Can other users respond to my thread even if I can't?

Yes, other users should still be able to respond to your thread even if you are unable to. If you are having trouble responding, it's possible that the issue is with your account or device, rather than the thread itself.

5. What should I do if I am still unable to respond to my own thread?

If you have tried all the troubleshooting steps and are still unable to respond to your own thread, it's best to reach out to the website administrator or moderator for assistance. They may be able to help you resolve the issue or provide more information on why you are unable to respond.
