Why are old threads not deleted?

@BHydden

but I kinda like the environment here where we group related topics together rather than needing to click through 30 different thread links to find what you’re actually looking for

I too like keeping relevant discussion grouped in the same thread.

Earlier, @flovo expressed the preference to automatically close all threads. See: Please lock ALL topics after 3 Months of inactivity

From the subsequent discussion, where I offered the rebuttal that I mentioned earlier, it appears that the more people on the forum prefer to not close old threads simply for being too old.

@flovo

The search function works for the whole forum, so there is no difference between 1 and multiple topics.

The difference is whether one finds one relevant thread to read through, or many relevant threads to read through. I find it more convenient to keep relevant discussion together in the same thread.
