Lock threads with no replies within a set time

[plankton]

Some people dig up old threads and reply to them. I find it annoying because I might reply to posts without realizing that they can be severel years old. Let the old threads die and make a new one with a link to the old thread instead if you absolutely need to rekindle it. Or ask a mod to unlock it.

I think that threads that havent't had a post in 6 months should automatically be locked.

Disagree...
Bumping old threads is a great way to take a trip down memory lane.

I concede. I hadn't accounted for the low standards of recently started threads. I apologize for carelessly submitting a proposal that I hadn't thought through. I hereby retract said proposal.
