If a mod is going to lock a thread for being redundant, at least link a thread of the same topic before locking.
Why? To support sloth? I don't think so. The people have to learn searching.
Sloth, such a deadly sin...
If a moderator is going to lock a thread for being redundant, he/she/it should provide proof that it is redundant in the form of a duplicate thread link.

Stop making topics complaining about people complaining about complaints.
I agree with the OP, having the mods link to a thread will increase the number of people posting on it, and keep it on the front page so less redundant threads will be created.

New people don't know that there are thousands of duplicated threads, and an older user may not either if they are not on the first few pages.
It's really depressing how the search bar doesn't exist.
It's really nice actually, it makes people find a different excuse than "no way, search".

Fix the search bar? Learn to fix it yourself!
