When is a "Thread" too old?
First I want to make clear I'm talking about message Threads NOT sewing thread. I'm looking at the "Main" forum and I see people commenting on posts that are several years old; giving advice and answers to the poster's questions. Do these Threads never die? I know I can pull forums up to only get the new stuff, but sometimes I want to see what's being talked about and what were the answers.
Again this is just a puzzling question that I've wanted to ask for a long time. PLEASE, I hope no one takes offense. It took me several minutes to hit the "Submit" button.
