Hey,
As many of you may already know, there's an especific rule in the forums that disallows you to reply into a thread which has been inactive for 3 or more weeks. So, over time there's been lot of suggestions to improve this rule or make something easier to avoid necro-post. Not so long ago, @Jukaido suggested a quite nice thread which you can take a look into it here. The thread was about adding an auto-lock threads system to avoid new players or non-family-friends players making this mistake. The thread got escalated but it never got implemented, since there was some issues with this, because not always it's deemed as necro-post since you can reply on them if you have something quite relevant to add, but well, that all it's in the thread so you can take a look into it if you want.
So I have a solution for this problem that may avoid many necro-replies:
Why not adding a warning?

- This would work like this: If a thread it's older than 3 weeks, it automatically would have a warning below the reply-box that says; "This thread is older than 3 weeks, are you sure you want to reply on it?". This could avoid a lot of mistakes.
