Locking a thread would punish everyone EXCEPT the guilty party (or parties), who will just take their shenanigans to another thread (assuming they hadn't already). Analogy to your solution: a teacher finds two students in a class of thirty throwing things at each other. The teacher locks the door to the room and puts everyone in the class on detention. Not exactly fair to the other twenty-eight kids.
The proper solution is removal of offending Posts, and if that doesn't get the message across, removal of the offenders themselves. Please don't do something heavy-handed (and senseless) like throwing the baby (the thread) out with the dirty bath water (the miscreants).
Respectfully,
Arryn good points and good examples to further strengthen them
