No apologies necessary! I don't think the question's come up yet. If a post is being locked from characters, as opposed to it being actually friends locked with Livejournal's settings, the lock should be treated like all the other filters people use. Just like if I were to make a post saying "Locked to Phoenix Wright crew" or "Locked from Phoenix Wright" those sort of instructions can't be broken unless the player specifically marks them as hackable. Make sense?
