I actually like it when old threads come back. New users can breathe new life into them. If we are to heed Purple's plea on the other thread, then don't we have to keep old threads open for a while? It seems to me, you can't have it both ways. Either new members make new threads, which might repeat past topics, or new users add to old threads? Which is it gonna be? Or do we just keep it how it is?


Frankly, Mr. Shankly, I'd like to nominate you for the Best BEA User award.


Aaaah! Thank you. Smile Embarassed

Thanks for clarifying. I really thought it was about me. Laughing

Yes, that's a good idea, we should vote on the archive thingy. I know I'll vote against it.

This is not the BEU awards, this is about the voting for whether you want the archives to be there or not.

People complain about people starting new threads and not bumping old ones.

People complain about bumping old threads.

If you start limiting people's abilities to start new threads with the threat of being chewed out for it, you are limiting the growth of your board...and your community.

Archiving is a great idea for places like this.
