tinyE: actually yes. I haven't been in that thread.

sunshinecorp: ...or is it? Infection might be airboner. I meant airborne.

monkeydelarge: I think all posts that are more than 2 years old should be locked and then deleted after 2 more years pass. There is no good reason to necro a thread that is 2 years old or older.

sunshinecorp: Well, that's a bit harsh...
Not at all. Is a SPAM filter, harsh?

sunshinecorp: But if a necroed thread gets so much attention for it to get derailed it means it is popular enough for people to use it to have a little bit of fun. Otherwise it would just die on its own, eath to earth, ashes to ashes, dust to dust.
Well yeah, as I said, inanity will find its outlets. That there are bored and easily amused people around is no reason to let them wreck threads that might have actually been useful in their original run, just because such a thread was revived for some random reason. If you need a playground to run wild in, I'm sure there are plenty of existing ones on here.

4 or 5 year old threads with irrelevant posts are in the same family as SPAM.

At the rate it's happening now, I agree. Couple of days ago it was just funny. But someone brought this to more attention that it deserves and it bit us all in the ass.

Do you feel that adding a smiley to it everytime somehow makes it less dumb to throw around a loaded word like "fascism" in response to opinions you disagree with? As far as I'm concerned that's on the same distasteful level as e.g. people who think it's funny to call other people "faggot".

Congrats for demonstrating that your brand of inanity is particularly inane, I guess.

I think one feature everyone could agree on is an amount of auto pruning to an archive for old posts.

And half the people who posted in such threads, don't even spend time here anymore... Most people hang out here for 2 or 3 years and then leave.

Well this is escalating nicely...
And you win for most uses of the word "inane" in a thread. *hands over bouquet*

He also wins because while his opinions include abolishing practices he doesn't like and/or exiling people who practice them to places where they won't bother him, I'm inane for using words such as "fascism" followed by :P

I have a large cache of weapons if you'd like one or a dozen.
