Your Old Threads.

Lately i've been needing to find a few of my previous threads, which have been inactive for more then 30 days, meaning it won't show up in the threads that i've made. We should be able to see all the threads we've ever created even if they've been inactive for 30+ days.

Another idea which would clean it up a bit is if your thread is older then 30 days you should be able to delete it completely so theres less pointless threads around. (Have alittle x beside it like in 'My Threads')

Just a thought.

i totally agree with this, some times its nice to be able to resurrect an old thread, if it served a vaild purpose, however for the most part it would be nice, if we had the ability to delete our own threads, that way if we did create a duplicate thread, we could remove it our selves,with out having to rely on the mods to remove the thread.

I don't think mods are given that much power.

Perhaps if I bump it Doug or another admin will see it and give it the approval or not

you should only delete the ones that have been inactive for 30+ days, because you could make a thread, and then someone would be reading it, then you would delete it. they would try to go back to it and they would be like 'what the heck?' it would cause a little bit of confusion

i agree!! especially threads were you ask something because once you find out the answer to what you ask your thread is pointless.

can't you rmember the thread title to search for or are do you just think it would be good to cruise back over old stuff.

I for one am ok with old topics being bumped
