Because people were turning them into personal attacks on asking prices, or rims, or engine choices or the seller, etc and so forth. Almost as bad as political threads. As such, they got locked down as it took too many man hours to police. Adults or children acting in a poor manner is why they have remained closed..........
As for changes, minor ones can be PM'd to me (IE" Price changes mostly).

If you lock the thread, it won't be brought back to the top every day.

Why can't you just leave the edit button there, for the poster?
I understand all the BS post problem, but this is the only site (Not all car sites) that locks you out!

Pat,
Actually there are many auto related sites that lock the for sale threads. As for the edit button, I'll check with Brent to see if this can be done, but I believe there is a permissions issue that cannot be overcome by the software used for this forum. Only time will tell.

Just do a new ad. Keeps it on top and doesn't everybody love to see the same ad 47 times?
