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

The obvious solution is to block the troll, not the threads.

There is value in being able to resurrect threads when appropriate.

Blocking the troll only lets you not see their posts. They still bump useless threads back to the front page.

I mean, for the moderators to block the troll from using the forum. Moderate the discussion.

Based on current evidence...good luck with that. It seems they don't care about people resurrecting outdated threads where the information has changed, quite often drastically.

As someone who moderated a hockey forum with over 25,000 members. I can count on one hand the amount of resurrected threads that weren't specifically to troll or simply not paying attention the dates. Obviously, a game forum differs but the same general rules apply. After a certain length of time, the topic just isn't relevant anymore.
