I'm double posting, because, naturally, I thought of what I really wanted to say right after I hit "submit"
My main problem with the current policy of closing repeat threads regardless of the time since the topic was discussed is that I feel it gives the wrong impression to a new poster.
Instead of saying "We'd be happy to discuss this, just do it over here", I think it more gives the impression, "We've already talked this over, solved this problem, come to a conclusion, and you're welcome to read it if you like, but we don't want to talk about it again."
Seriously, if a thread hasn't been touched in a year, what's the harm in archiving that and starting anew? Will someone please respond to the actual proposal?
