erm, I don't claim to be anyone's "savior" - are you "projecting" a little?
Ultimately, here you are - you started a topic called "Did Cedars manipulate Lee into having a thread closed?". It is your obsession with what you think others think of you. That's called ego.
Here's some free advice: you need to learn to not give a damn.
Sure, you have to care and be passionate about things but not be so sensitive that reading criticism tears you apart. Right now, I've seen this from you over and over in different scenarios - you just cannot stand to imagine that people don't think you're right.
But guess what, not only can we not always be right, we can't control whether people think we're not right even when we are!
Anyone can make a claim over and over again whether it has any basis or not. They can be completely false (I've had plenty of those) or have a modicum of 'facts' mixed in to make them believable ... enough (to some) or they can be a misinterpretation or misunderstanding based on a perspective. I actually think this is a case of the latter - you believe you didn't ask for a topic to be locked but can't understand why it would appear to someone else that you did. If you obsess over it then all that happens is you drive yourself silly trying to 'prove' the unprovable and risk damaging your credibility along the way. Worse still, other people start getting hurt and I don't believe you want that deep down even though you just want to go mental and swing your fists right now.
But what does it matter?
What would be the big deal if you did ask for the topic to be locked?
It was 6 months ago. We're all allowed to make mistakes and move on.
Sure, someone will try and bring it up again as a jab. You have to trust that it either isn't too important to bother with or that people know the truth and for those who chose to believe lies that people say about us? Are they really worth worrying about? It's the internet - it's full of idiots.
End free advice. Ding ding, round ...erm, 4(?)
