The short answer to your question is There is no specific period of time that threads are left unlocked. however, you will notice that some of the threads have a little green lock associated with a specific thread. You are correct that specific thread has been locked for any additional commenting.

One way around this situation would be to initiate a new thread and Permalink the previous/locked thread to your new thread.
If you find this post useful, please give the author a "Solution", or mark as "Kudo", if it solves your problem, thank you very much.
