No, it's not meant as a spamming machine. I only need to post a message 
and then (if that's possible) lock the topic (I'm admin on the forum 
where I need this). The program first needs to read the topic for 
certain words (that's already working), and then reply that those words 
aren't welcome.

I hope I made myself clear.
