how long can a thread stay alive?

[saxman]

how long can a thread stay alive? Don't they get archived after awhile? How long does it take? When does the auto archive feature kick in?



I wonder how long this thread will say alive

 

[fdiskboy]

Nef threads don't live long. They reproduce a lot, but have very short lifespans.

For the most part.

45 days.

 

[iamwiz82]

45 days from the last post

 

[Yo Ma Ma]

Actually, I believe it is 45 days from the inception of the thread, otherwise we'd still have the original "ignore" and "dasm" threads in dist comp.

so you're saying that after 45 days from the initial thread posting, it gets archived?

what if its still getting replies every day?

 

[Yo Ma Ma]

The threads I mentioned were getting many replies a day right up to when they got archived.

 

[iamwiz82]

really? i assumed 45 days form last post

 

[Yo Ma Ma]

[iamwiz82]
