Thoughts on implementing thread locking on idle threads after a standard period.

[Foxsoup]

Locking old threads would be detrimental to a lot of the DIY section. Having information from several people for multiple builds in a single thread is way better than having to swap backing and forth between 20 different treads.

lol

A guy bumps an old thread. Rokslide is upset.
A guy posts a new thread, which topic is close to an old thread. Rokslide is upset.

How is anyone supposed to use Rokslide!?

And it’s not even the off season yet….

I try and use the search function, sometimes it's a PITA to try and find information.

It's pretty easy to tell the new people bumping an ancient post to get faster access to sell.

Might not be popular, but I'd be down to paying to sell. I think that would solve a lot of problems.
Other forum I'm on its $30.00 a year, non-payers can buy from you but not sell.

Don't use the forums search function. Go to Google and search whatever you are looking for and just put "rokslide" at the end.

For example "best budget rain gear rokslide"

It will put all relevant threads within the forum at the top of the search results.

Is this an actual problem?

The various thread lockers are unreliable, recommend rock set or paint pen.

When an old thread surfaces from years ago that I posted in I find it interesting to look back and see how full of crap I was(am).
