What about the resurrection of age old threads?


Usually, even if someone new does search, they find a similar post, and then instead of trying/reading through the thread, they just add their post to the end.

That is the only reason not to get this new feature.  The only thing that may make this worthy is if we had an auto-lock feature for old threads (like over 4 months since the last post then they would get locked), that has problems but we would still have less pointless threads with this auto-search feature implemented at the same time (I don't think you could really have one without the other).

And also with the locked threads, the person can always make a new thread and we just get them merged together anyway....
