Contact any of the many moderators about it, they'll take it from there.

Which would be straight abuse of the report function. That function is meant to help moderators to keep the forums safe and not to make moderators your personal secretaries

Either leave a comment on their profile (not recommended because thats annoying) or mark your Thread in an obvious way like "[CLOSED] SampleTitle" via the edit function
Moderators will see it eventually and close it

Or just join one of the many moderator chats and tell them to lock your thread and skip the waiting game.

You can report one of the other posts and describe that it went off-topic.

If a thread goes off-topic, it could be a reason to get locked. But true, alternative is to unsubscribe and ignore the thread.

Waiting is recommended because closing threads is one of the lower priorities for moderators

Not a rule of course but just good manner imo

No one ever talked about off topic Posting. Its about general locking requests

Should've said "skip a chunk of the waiting game".

My bad.

And I answered.

Unsubscribe and don't go back to it.

If people want to continue the thread, then they are free to do so. You are free not to continue to participate in the thread. Unsubscribing will make it so you will not get notification from the thread.
