I just noticed all threads over 90 days old get auto locked. Anyone else see this as bad? There are tons of great threads that came back again and again mostly in the sticky sections. Some go up to 90 days without posts then get more. Take the cap thread by dust puppy. That comes back every 6 months or so and its good.
I do see why this is done to stop necros but in stopping the invalid bumping up old threads the bumping up good threads has also been stopped.

Originally by: Sister Impotentata My two cents? Do exactly the opposite of the 90 day auto lock and all it implies. Come down hard on duplicates of recent topics, encourage people to search, research, and necro.

It's a good thing. It keeps people from necroposting and spamming the forums.

.... huh?
Spam is adding more threads about the same topics and redundant dead horses. Search and posting in the existing thread rather than starting a new one is a much better rule of thumb.

It's funny cause some forums say you SHOULD necro and not create new topics when old topics on the subject already exist...
But here it's like "Wtf you must make a new thread to discuss the same thing"

difference is frug, around here 90 day old info is usually no longer correct, its already been nerfed/buffed/changed (whatever your preference)

Actually, it works like this:
1) Poster makes new topic somehow critical of game. Topic is locked: duplicate. Keep it to original thread. 2) Poster necros old topic somehow critical of game. Topic is locked: necro. 3) Poster makes new thread fellating CCP employee(s) and generally praising game. No moderation.
