Aged Threads

[Oxfordian]

I have seen a few old threads getting re started even though they are well over a decade old, in one case nearly two decades.

Why doesn't the forum have an auto-lock feature on threads that have gone over say 3 months without any activity?

If a forum member needs an old thread re-opened for a valid reason then a request to a moderator could get the thread reset.

I would guess that a lot of threads are active for a few months only before interest ceases, so why not auto close them?

Just a thought.
