    Dead Threads...

    We need someone to go around and close old threads. Unless they are there for a reason. I think I have resurrected more dead threads then I have with up-to-date threads.

    I think it's a good idea.

    I think you are keeping the dead threads to make the forms look huge. It may confuse a lot of people replying to a dead thread, and then never getting an answer.I have been confused a lot because of that.

    Maybe close threads that no one has had posted in for 6 months.

    Nah. Just look at the date of the last post before posting. If it's old then don't post.

    i vote yes, because when i am reading posts, i dont look at their date(usually only when posting and sometimes i forget to do that too...) and i get stuck with out dated information

    Would it really be worth the time to "go around and close old threads"?

    Maybe you should look at thread dates before posting, too
