Mapping app that lets you avoid freeways?

Forum Discussion
There have been several requests to lock down comments on threads older than a year. The requests have been received and acknowledged but still no changes. I'd say it happens a couple times a week. And it's almost always newbies who come here from a google search, never complete their profiles ("visitor") and never return.

Locking down old topics is not hard. Last week there was a an old topic that turned sour and the comments were turned off. So it can be done.
Updating the thread date has thrown me off several times. I click on the thread because it shows a date that's less than 3 days old and only after the snarky "it's a 10yr old thread" do I catch it.
yup I get sucked in every time way2roll tells someone its a old thread haha..
I'm really trying to be helpful and continue to draw awareness to the problem. But I'll stop. It doesn't seem to help anyway.
Sorry, wasn't trying to pick on you, just annoyed that a fairly basic feature isn't accounted for.
