Lock button
 
It seems like a regular part of getdare is seeing threads which have finished or had their last post 6 months ago getting bumped by someone who doesn't understand when a thread has died.

Maybe a way to stop this could be to give the creator of the thread a button to lock the thread so that no one can respond to it and bump it 6 months down the line.

It may also be give rise to some new creative ideas.

Uhhhh, reviving threads is really fun though o,,,o
Digging around for some past threads can give you some really interesting results :p

I do think it would be useful for role play dares etc. Or something the creator stopped doing for some reason. Also if they don't want the thread to go on.

However, if you ask a mod, they may lock a thread of yours for you.

Biggest way I see this being useful is when the thread is time-sensitive, such as "I'm doing this dare during this time, need help" threads. Stuff that is obviously past the time limit, doesn't really help to try and revive 3-6 months (or years) later.

Reviving old threads can be great. If there is a thread that is way over, like somebody asking for tasks last year, then it can be reported and a mod can close the thread.
