automatic archiving

This past year, there have been many threads brought back from the dead (The newton thread is only one of many). In some cases, it is harmless, but many times this past year, a thread asking about previous year's rules was brought back from the dead. The information was clearly wrong about the current year, and then you had someone quoting a post from a year ago, saying how it was wrong.

I'd suggest some type of auto-archiving of posts.

It could be something like locking any post that hasn't been replied to in 2 months. Or, it could be on a certain date in the summer, any post that hadn't been replied to in the last month is moved to an archival forum (like the 99, 2000, and 2001 forums).

just another thing to thing about adding to vb3...
