Re spamming of old threads

Post by lizzyb »

Just read the thread explaining why the 'need help' thread was removed.

I have noticed that a lot of old threads from way back, some as far back as 3 years are kind of resurrected fairly regularly recently.

If these 'resurrections' are caused by spammers, would it be possible to set up and move them to an archive of old threads that are important and worth keeping, and make this archive unpostable? We do this on our UK based message boards, and that way, we keep all the important, useful stuff and we don't get spammed either.

Just a thought.
