Scott Schroeder Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Can you lock threads that are older than a year? I've been seeing so many dead threads being bumped after years of dormancy. Someone probably comes here from a Google search, creates a user name, and posts one post just to bump a 3 year old thread. This is the only forum that I frequent that doesn't auto lock threads after 12 months. Can that be done here? It'll avoid confusion of almost (or actually) responding to a bump of a thread from many years past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ernest Burden III Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 I've noticed the same thing. But experience suggests that the best way to lock a thread is to mention Maxwell Render. There, I did it. Look out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Mottle Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Hey Scott, I'll look into the plugin that does this on VBulletin. It's been added to my to do list. Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ernest Burden III Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 What about 'what are you listening to'? Oldest thread on CGA, isn't it? Don't let it get locked! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Mottle Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 What about 'what are you listening to'? Oldest thread on CGA, isn't it? Don't let it get locked! Sticky threads are excluded, so it's safe. Thanks for reminding me though. Had to double check, but it's safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
