I agree.

Sorry, I just had to post on this "old, dead thread" that hasn't had a post in several weeks.

I was glancing Througt the trashcan, Abd i saw a old form trashed cause it was reopened.
It was a dare request. It was 2.5 years old

I think perhaps there could be an Auto-archiving feature to be put in place that archives threads over like a month old.

I am really against this because after a while people won't know that a thread was made because it went off and they make the same thread.

I think most gravediggers find threads either by keywords, or by the box at the bottom entitled "similar threads". Perhaps those two features should only show the most recent threads.. instead of threads from summer of 2010 or even before. Sometimes one doesn't look at the date if they find something that excites them.

I was under the impression that threads were left open so people could post something relevant. So if it's a dare thread (as opposed to a 'dare me' thread), someone could reawaken it and post information about their experience of it (not just "I dun it"), or improvments/variations.

I like it this way - but it does rely on people being responsible about how they do it.

ye only ads should be time locked. This way you can go back to 2005 dares and if you find a good one... bring it to the top for people.

Yeah, there's a whole thread dedicated to doing dares called blasts from the pasts. I don't see a problem with reviving dinosaurs as long as there is new relevant content.
