I don't know how many times I've searched for something and gotten tons of posts only to come to a dead end. Posts should be open-ended. That way if somebody does a search and has something valuable to add, they can go ahead and do it. Instead, I am forced to post a question that has been posted 1,000 times before me all because it never got a clear reply and then it was too late due to it being locked and nobody wanted to start a new post.
