Dear Devs: Please lock threads that are 3-6 months old without new responses.

I'm all for Mega-Threads but after 3/6 months of inactivity the discussion clearly isn't relevant anymore.

And then they release a new item on the mogstation and yet another new redundant thread about why Square is the manifestation of all evil springs up when there's like 10+ topics about the mogstation and all the exact same points from the last 10 times the topic was made get regurgitated.

Plenty of topics can be far older than 6 months and still have relevancy based on new information that is suppled well after the topic concluded its lifespan at the time. Also see the trillion hrothgar/Viera threads that would be infinitely more useful being condensed to a mega thread and is a constant relevant topic, even if it is only brought to the forefront of discussion whenever something is released that excludes them.

Mega-threads are definitely the win-win for both devs and forum goers, but villifying necroing threads if there's relevant discussion to be added is kinda counter-productive when its literally the intent of the developers behind how the forum should be used in their eyes.
