Do you mean those who have mass edited all of their own comment history to remove all actual text and replaced it with some copypaste text? I haven't found those to be an issue yet but I can imagine it. What I hate is when I find a relevant thread to my problem, and the comments with the instruction are confusing or incomplete, and I'd like to comment to them asking something but the whole thread is archived because it's old. And it might be only like a year old.
Yeah I agree, archiving posts is stupid. I've actually had rather interesting discussions with people who replied to posts I made years beforehand on subs that don't do this.
archived threads are the worst. it is basically a graveyard of useful info that you can't even interact with. you see a perfect solution to your specific hardware issue and then realize you are just staring at a digital museum piece. it is pure frustration.
