Cause I've seen some kids bumping really old topics just to be funny or are still bitter about an argument like a nerd who don't let things go and the things that were said in the thread would make him look good now. If a thread haven't had any reply in a while then there's nothing else to add to the thread so it should be locked.

*Bump*

It's already against the rules. Mods should be locking ancient bumped threads bumped for no good reason or to embarrass someone for an antiquated opinion.

I oppose.

Bumping ancient threads is a drunken tradition.

There's phpbb mods that can do this automatically.

I like the idea but I think it needs to be taken a step further. All threads that are over an hour old should be locked.

I never understood why people are against bumping old topics if it is relivant in some way now.

I wonder what the OP wrote that he doesn't want bumped.

Use your mod powers to bump it and move it to the OTB so we can harass him for being a silly goose?

There is rare occasion where it might be ok, but if it's to make someone look bad for a failed prediction or something like talking bad about a player who just came to your team, it's against the rules.

As someone who doesn't quite understand "rules", perhaps locking has it's benefits.
