Mods: Can the really old stuff be archived?

Ppl keep reopening ancient threads, one was 10 years old. 

The info in those threads must be well out of date.

Is there a way to let them be read but not added too? 

If I'm the only one bothered I'll go find somewhere less confusing to hang out. I'm quite aware it might just be me that's struggling with this

  • I don't see the necessity. 

    Information being out of date isn't always applicable or the most important aspect of a discussion. 

    I created a thread called 'library of threads' as I treat the forum as a library. 

    Some of those threads are over 12 months old and I love to read input still and am very pleased if one is resurrected. 

    I don't particularly like the concept of fast moving, ever changing social media where what is in the past is forgotten/discarded.

    I am very happy to respond to general interest threads more than a year old.

    If a bot brings up a thread several years old I read it.

  • January will mark a year since Luna passed, I still enjoy reading some of her posts when they surface. I never knew ‘Plastic’ but reading their input is often informative, they have passed but their knowledge lives on.
