What thread, link?

Perhaps he means 'deleted'.

@FMF

if it was deleted it would not be there.

perhaps i meant "closed", like a house with a locked door and not a demolished ( deleted ) house.

comments must be posted to threads on a regular basis or they will automatically be closed

Thread 183096, while marginally interesting, was ultimately sorted to the dustbin as nobody cared enough to bump it up

when i went to the faq to find out how long a thread will last if nobody posts i could find no information

do you really care about the church of lds requirements and recommendations?

lol,
i ask a question like *i* really care about the answer

All threads get 'closed' once they have been dormant for three months.

The whole raison d'etre for Thread 142156 ~ starting halfway down page 1 and sustained by Ponderable's sterling efforts for the last 8 years ~ is pinned upon the automatic 3-month cut-off.

Actually two month (60 days)

rookie54 didn't know.
I thought I knew.
You knew you knew and now we know too.

@FMF

my point is correct.

the post was "closed" and not "deleted".

Of course it's closed. And there's no mystery as to why.

I still don’t get it.

Who cares?

@divegeester

does it matter that you care or not ?

And if you had cared enough about it to post in it and not let it languish for the full 60 days, perhaps it would still be open.

The last post in Thread 183692 was on the 14th of January and that thread is closed. The last post in Thread 183710 was on the 15th and is still open at the time of posting. Because February had 29 days this year that's exactly 60 days as well as being exactly 2 months. So unless Ponderable has some reason to think that it goes on number of days rather than number of months, there's some doubt. I'm assuming he did what I did and took a look at page 2 of the forum to see when the last thread to be closed was closed.
