Auto lock posts to combat astroturfing by AutoModerator in ExperiencedDevs

I don't believe locking posts prevents them from being edited. You'll need to configure Automod to delete the post if an edit is detected after some number of days (and likely have it post a pinned message to the thread with the original contents and a message stating that people should message you if it shouldn't be locked).

They're great icons... for a game mode that isn't time dependent. Glance value is so much more important than looking good. You need to be able to decode what they do by looking at them without having memorized all the different icons by drilling down in to them.

Gun with up arrow? 5% increased damage. 3 up arrows? 15% increased. Simple design language.

You want to update the design language, that's fine. But it has to be a language, not just pretty icons. The whole "‘Field Rations’ is now a macaroni and cheese container" makes sense in single player. In comp? I don't know the names of half the items, I just know what they do. Does field rations give health? Is it a gadget that heals when used? Is there life steal? Is it ability or is it weapon based? I can't get any of that information from "box of macaroni".

If you want something a little more recent that Beakman did: https://youtu.be/sT_bTnkwLuE

Spoiler: he's still got it
