lea Posted September 4, 2003 Share Posted September 4, 2003 i have a question....why cant closed threads be deleted after a few days? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braidless Baka Posted September 4, 2003 Share Posted September 4, 2003 [color=orangered]Well... My guess would be that threads that have some valid points, but the discussion has just run dry, those threads are there to be pointed at next time the comment/query comes up. And, imagine you make a post, and that thread is locked for whatever reason. Then gets deleted. You come back a few days later, and this post is nowhere to be found. You could spend hours searching for it O_o;; I dunno... that's just my take on it.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted September 4, 2003 Share Posted September 4, 2003 [color=#707875]And we leave closed threads there as an example of what not to do, generally. We can easily point to these threads when we advise members of the rules.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meteora Posted September 30, 2003 Share Posted September 30, 2003 [color=666666][size=1][i]Wouldn't it also lower your post count? Because when you delete a post you post count lowers, so Im guessing it would do it for that as well.[/color][/size][/i] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
