Locking Older Threads That Come Up

On the Just repeating what I said earlier thread, Holly said:
"I've been here almost 13 years.. and I still don't mind giving help or advice to newbies... What I do mind is the same questions being asked over and over again..I wish people would do a search first to see if there's an existing thread on the topic before starting a new one.. and see if it's still relevant."
How does that sit with the sentiment of this thread? For what it's worth I agree with Holly, why start a new thread when the topic has not only been covered but still exists?

I can't tell you how many times I've searched for a thread that I know is here, including my own and the threads did not come up. Sometimes I put the words almost verbatim in the search. I don't know why that is, but it is!

@Beezer..re your point. I've thought about that too. But apparently, people find old threads and find them interesting enough to respond which brings them to the top again.
