Just searching through this forum and the AKA forum alone could turn into a week-long event. lol

I think you make a good point here.. when new to a board..one hasn't figured out all the ins and outs of the board..and when you want to get involved, you open a thread just to come back and see it deleted or locked with a message in CAPS about doing a search.
But..at the same time..I do see why the moderators do it..I think older threads show how opinions may change over time..e...I guess moderators just get tired of repeating the same things over and over again..but then again..thats part of their job I guess..
