That's a good suggestion of yours, we should use self moderated to avoid those spammers in our thread but the main case is very worst. Even there is no spammers or shitposters in our thread, the topic is always being locked. I don't know why but as you said, the posts of theyoungmillionaire and others, after a week, it will become a locked topic.
You pointed out all the disadvantages of having this kind of cycle in our community. Being locked> New gen will create a similar topic> New members can't easily find the original content bacause it's in the
nth page. The purpose of having a thread is to put some add-ons on the content not to create another version of the content. It's very obvious that we're trying to make some good posts to be a model of our local and to give a good inspiration to all of the aspiring posters in our forum.
If they're against about spoonfeeding, that's not the case here. Even in meta there are tutorials about some things and will fully help you about some deeper knowledges.
note; sorry sa nagbabasa, alam kong nasa local. napa-english lang bigla.As a relatively new member, I have also wondered why some posts that are indeed helpful get locked-- even though I don't really see a reason why. However, the moderators may have their own reasons, but still, I find it weird all the same.
Just like what sir Maus0728 said, I often see theyoungmillionaire's and your name in the local forum. I guess you're one of the active posters here, and I'm grateful for your posts because most of what I know about the forum and social media are from your content. That's why I agree that posts like these shouldn't be locked.
