Suggestion Thread Revival Limits

[261311]

Love Scubaboard but one thing that makes me boil is going into threads with new posts, reading all the way through them only to find out that the thread was started 4 years ago and someone revived it by essentially bumping it with summary advice for someone who no longer browses the forum. While I have no doubt the archive of posts that we have on this forum are invaluable, can we add an auto-lock system for inactive threads dated a year or longer? Adding to some threads is an important process which I understand but there's a good few I read through and can't help but think "why was this revived".

Can we make it so I don't get banned for calling someone an a$$hole? I did that last year and got banned...and it really hurt my feelings. I'm getting old and we older folks should be given special privledges.
I've been trying to find that thread. Can someone help me? I was going to print it and pin it on my refrigerator "Hall of Fame".

IIRC - that was one of the best outbursts I'd ever seen on a message board (and was spot on!).

On another subject, next year you may want to ask DNY folks for some volunteers for the SB at BTS.

Coverage of the booth at the show was not as good as in the last 3 or 4 years. I thought about just sitting down, and greeting people, abut then figured that you might NOT want me talking to potential customers.

Silly goose, it's a 44 mag, not a .45.

I am sure i could have gotten a few folks to stop and talk to me at the SB booth. I was wearing this shirt on Sat, and I was constantly being stopped to discuss the shirt, and the resistance movement to current political trends that it represents

actually there is a wildcat Winchester .45 Mag. He either got lucky or is really dangerous......
