if it ain't broke, don't fix it

The old school version of predictive maintenance.

One of the quickest ways to break something is to fix it when it ain't broken.

Gametrailers: If it ain't broke, don't fix it

If there is no evidence of a real problem, and fixing the "problem" would not effectively improve GameTrailers., then don't waste time and energy (yours or anybody else's) trying to fix it. At least tend to the existing problems before creating more.

So we were hoping for GT to fix their site problems, instead they added something new and broke more stuff! So Gametrailers: If it ain't broke, don't fix it!
