This, however, is utterly useless:

hehe WIN :) And it's an old Necro too. (By the way, if you want to see something really useless: take a look at Darksteel Relic...)

Anyway, lest we run this thread totally off topic: my thought would be that if you don't want to allow necroposting, auto-locking old threads is a (presumably) simple and effective solution. It allows the forum software to take over a job that otherwise needs to be done by the mentors, and it makes the policy on necroposting clear to all members. Given that, based on what I've seen people saying here, the vast majority of necroposts are spam or otherwise useless, it makes sense to disallow them by default. As AlephZero said, when there is a legitimate need for an exception a mentor can still unlock the thread.
