Auto thread lock after one week

    It would stop necroing, maybe different autolock depending on the type of thread:
    EX:
    General: Never auto locks
    Elements suggestion: Locks after 7 days
    Creations: Locks after 30 days
    ECT.
    Or even auto locks after a certain amount of days without new replies

    Suggestions should lock (includng feedback)
    but not mods or creations. hard work should never be locked.

    After 30 days, you pretty much forgot about your creation and everyone pretty much saw it soooo
    But yes mods should never be locked

    actually, i take that back, threads should only be locked by moderators, and when appropriate. because just because a thread hasn't had activity for a while dosent mean its a bad idea.

    Yes but it doesn't worth to be bumped again while 90% already saw it, and it's like déjà vu and it annoys me

    Wrong forum, and unneeded. Old threads can still be used if a relevant question is asked.

    Threads should be lockable by their creators as well as moderators. I don't think they should be locked after a certain amount of time, but if they are buffed by their creators more than twice without a response they should be locked.
