Duplicates and locked threads...

Aside from the search function and message marking not being 100% I think there is only one remain issue from the overhaul, which has two parts:

1.) If you are in the middle of posting a reply and a thread is locked when you click the Submit button the page is simply refreshed?you are not notified that the thread has been locked and that posting has been disabled.

2.) If you go to post a message with a duplicate subject or body the bold red text is displayed but the forum software ?forgets? where you were (You are suddenly in the forum called ?Forum?), making it impossible to Preview or Submit your post.
