Default Two forum questions

Why are sticky " locked threads " still showing ?
How do ads from three / four years back suddenly appear ?

If the thread is locked, i.e. end of an auction, parts / car sold, why does it remain ? There is no value to this information.

When someone post a thread the current date is automatic. How do old posts from years back get reposted without a current date / time ? Many do not search out the date of the ad and it becomes a big joke when someone responds to a four year old post. Many times the original poster is no longer on the forum.
While your busy removing what you think is controversial and not an aid to the particular ad ......... can you check on the remainder of the above?
Your most welcome.

You're barking up the wrong tree with those questions on this forum. Go to the help and feedback forum under forums at the top of page and ask there.

we lock them to redirect to another thread OR they are posted for informational purposes and not to be replied to

How do ads from three / four years back suddenly appear ?

someone replies to an old thread or adds new info

it is locked per forum rules....its not deleted in case there is a dispute
