There needs to be an actual reason to lock something like it's going off topic, it's breaking rules or it's been requested.
Mods have locked similar threads before due to more efficient threads but yes i see where you're goin by sayin that
Just my opinion, But .. This thread is misinformative, and leaves out critical details and isn't updated and lumped an old potd with (at the time) current ones .. It's really as if jiggys thread had a stroke, this is the result
