I can see why out-of-hand threads get locked up. But why repeats? As someone pointed out on another thread, new members join GC everyday. Maybe they would like to put their 2 cents in? An opinion that is different that what has been stated? Yes, they are free to add to the old topic. But then you have people saying, "Omg...can't you see that this thread is over a year old?!"
Oi.
