Or, another annoying one, you find a thread, solve it yourself, and can't post because the thread is locked for whatever dumb reason. You make a new thread and it never gets traffic from search engines. Only the old one. So nobody ever solves the problem because some mod is worried about necroing, oh the horror.

The new thread also gets closed as a duplicate of the old thread
