Sometimes topics are also very successful and last a very long time. Why close a topic that is doing well and people are interested in. However, if the topic has been bumped you are more than welcome to contact a guide to get it closed. May I also mention that it is equally annoying to have members who post new topics about something they want to complain about instead of taking some action to make sure they are not annoyed by said thing on TT.
So, now you know the protocol, there is no further reason to whinge unless you are not prepared to make the effort to check the popularity of a thread or contact a guide. In which case that is entirely your own problem. You have the choice to read or not to read something... learn to exercise that right.
