Locking old threads...again.

[gubi-gubi]

1. If somebody create a new thread, then they bitch "Why create a new thread. It's already been done in another thread." blah blah

2. If someone bring up an existing thread, then they bitch "Why bring up an old thread. Create a new one" blah blah

Not really. If people use common sense then none of this would need to be said. People only bitch about 'it being done before' when it's something like 'What are MAC/MI/FX' and crap like that that could easily be searched for and answered without any writing in any threads. Bringing up existing threads to do stuff like vote in a poll is ridiculous and not needed in any case. If it was an old thread that had a question that wasn't answered or something then yes bring it up again but not if there is no need. If a new member (or old but they should know better) brings up an old thread with nothing to contribute then it should be locked and they should be warned. No need to automatically lock threads but if they come up with no use then lock them.
