YOUR KILLING ME!!!!! Please stop dredging up 2 year old posts just to add on to the discussion, fist off the people who your replying to are more than likely not here any longer...which is a good thing in most cases. Secondly...we like new threads, so just make anew thread with your question/comment....OK?!?!?!

I suggested in the past that pruning was in order.... first off a database with 2+ year old posts is slowing this place to a crawl....

If it is worth anything then lock it and move it to a FAQ forum.

Another favorite of mine is the autolock mod for threads over 90 days.

Just my $.02 worth though....

Why create another post of something that is already on here? That's what the Search feature is for. We already have 23848 posts about the exact same thing on this forum, so why would you advocate creating even MORE posts of the exact same crap? It's kind of pointless to me.

I think the whole driving an import thing is getting to you ImportLover, uh, I mean Mike or, should we just call you RiceBurnerBoy now

23849 now. Which moderator wants to go thru them and send the old repeats and nonresponded tos into the recyle bin??? If I start now I'd be back and able to post about 2.4 years from now?
Some kind of autolock mode would be worth looking into?? Any body want to fire up a Mod Room post and huddle on any ideas, locking, auto locking, FAQs, pins, and some recycle binners?? We can dump the useless post aye???? If we come up with some proposals we can intelligently offer it up for member discussion.

Mike, the search feature is great...for READING threads....what kinda sense does it make to reply to a two year old thread? Is Denise or his sidekick gonna reply back? Think about it Mike, Same question + New members = Different answers!

I like the auto-mod idea but only for locking the threads so that no one can reply to them...keep them as a read only.....lot's of good old info that I would hate to lose.
