Unlocking a thread and sticky threads

How can I unlock a thread? If I can't, can that be added please?

Also, this came up because I made a thread for discussing rules and being an important thread, made it a notice so it'd be up top, but that seems to have auto-locked the thread and unchecking the notice box did not unlock it.

Of course, if that suggestion about organizing threads ever happens that'd solve the latter issue.

Took me a while, but I actually found "Edit Thread." I didn't know about it.

Might be a good thing to talk about in the Help pages.

Under Thread Functions in the Help pages:

GMs in a game have several functions they can apply to a thread, either from the thread's display, or from the Edit Thread menu.

Bolding mine. The following list includes Closing, Archiving, etc.

Yea, but I thought it was talking about the options at the bottom when you are editing the first post of thread, like the notice and archive checkboxes.

Further, it does not say those options are checkboxes which can be unchecked to undo, and in fact, do not even imply that you can unclose a thread.

It really only makes sense that you could when you already know.
