People have different opinions and different answers to questions, and some answers are more right than others.

If a thread it no longer usefull and the problem originally reported by the person who opened the topic has been resolved then it deserves a lock.

If you created the thread you should have permission to lock it, but it doesn't seem to be the case, so they tend to stay open allowing people to come in and skip past all the posts and they reply.

I know I'm guilty of this, but in my defence, I try and add more information or even a screen shot to make it easier if anyone else needs help and drops by.
