Minecraft Username: Billybue24 Brief Description: Trying to place a sign in my shop, but it says it it locked. Instructions: Not much you can do here, go to my shop (23) and press the blank sign, it says it is locked by another user who hasn't been online in almost a week. How many times did you recreate this bug?: Once, can't really do it again. Result: Locked sign that doesn't make sense. Expected Result: I put a message on it that didn't appear, so I would have expected it to appear and to sign not be locked. I then tried to remove it, but that doesn't seem to be happening.

I'd imagine that's because the lock carried over after the shop was worldedited out. That said, you should just pm a supermod in game and they'll probably remove it for you.
I placed a sign at /warp Christmas and it was instantly locked by cracker228989 I had her unlock it but it was just a blank sign locked by her, she had some locks around the area.
When you first get a shop, you should fill the whole thing with dirt, then try to break all the dirt. This will find any hidden locks left over from a previous owner.
