I think it often shows laziness and lack of willing to do some research on an already covered topic.

Very rarely do we see a first-time poster say "I've thoroughly searched the Forum, but can't find a suitable answer..." and with over 8000 articles now, many of the common issues have been discussed already.

I'd rather see an old topic "bumped" back to the top of the list as it keeps the information more readily available and easier to find. Continually starting topics on similar issues just fragments the information, making it harder to correlate.

At the end of the day, I and many of the other contributors have not only put time into our research, but put YEARS into it, and then gone to the effort of making it readily available to others. I don't think it's asking much to do a little research before asking. Hell, one of two recent topics discussing detonation and lower cylinder destruction is actually still on the first page of the Discussion Forum and has 31 posts!
