While I would agree that a very small few good discussion threads may have been locked recently, I still think that the mods have done a very good job in making sure duplicate threads are non existant. They are also very good at making sure once a question is answered, the thread is closed. Would be no use beating a dead horse.
Plus the mods don't have that "super professional" attitude that they have to reply to everything properly and inhumanly. They got a human side to them, which is what I like about moderators most of the time. Plus the mods take part in discussions sometimes and don't just close threads and give warnings.
So kudos mods. +1 for all of you
