Auto-lock threads?

(1/3) > >>

stealthwolf:
A few newbsters are resurrecting threads that have been quiet for many months without adding anything new.

Is it worth locking any thread that hasn't had a new reply for a number of months?

Perhaps an option for either the thread starter or anyone who replied in the thread to then be able to resurrect it if necessary?

Top Cat:
Surely its better that new people resurrect old threads rather than ask the same question again and again, the old threads get re-booted because people are using the search function.  :chicken:

stealthwolf:
^^^ I agree where threads have been resurrected for a reason but very frustrating when someone posts "oh kool!".

There must be better ways to stop this from happening?

Top Cat:
Nothing wrong with oh cool.  :innocent:

Maybe focus your energy on world peace or " whats for tea tonight i wonder"   :laugh:

^^^^
TC finds nappy changing very therapeutic and energy focussing  :evilgrin:


I think it would severely limit the great resource of info this site has if older threads were auto locked. A Search often reveals valuable info posted a long time ago.
