Closing thread

Well most forum do close old threads. Sometime closing a thread after a certain time is a good idea as it then encourages members to start new threads. as a lot of members don't seem very motivated to starting new topics they tend to hang around on the same threads.

With topics on Windows 7,Windows 8 for example,Windows and software is constantly being updated.So topics on IE8 for example won't apply is say 3 months time as most people would have solved the problem or moved on to another browser by then.
 
Your right Julio. On some forums there are threads over a year old that are not relevant now or most members have lost interest in. So yes it is better to close threads after a certain time. Also some threads on some forums are about 60 pages long and most people won't want to wade through that many pages.

It's become almost a given that you'd be over here telling us how it should be done.
