The crew has long thought about cleaning up the old topics in the various subbies, but some Mods would have the topics preserved as nostaliga. Due to our undecision and democratic decision-making process, we have left the fate of the old topics up to a public poll.
There's also the matter of how long a topic is inactive before it is deleted. So, this has been incorporated into the poll. Now then, vote away!

I say get rid of any topic with 2 or less pages that hasn't been updated in 6 months. That way the pointless ones are gone, but the good ones stay.

I agree with the poll. Not six, but four months. And any inactive threads that were popular... You could place them in the archives.

Thanks for the thoughts so far! I'm glad to see such speedy responses. smile
I should've made the "3/4 months" poll option say "3-6 months" instead.
This poll will remain until more votes have been cast, allowing us to come to a definite result.

That works then. And the archives are a good place for the really good ones, good plan.
Me and my "good" vocabulary. wink

Okay, but you guys will have to give me a list of the ones you think are worth saving. I already know one I'll save. *searches the past pages for Tana's old topic*

I haven't been here that long, I don't know which ones were the really good ones... I'll leave that bit up to you guys. I'd end up keeping a really pathetic one and trashing an awesome one.

We'll wait 1 full week before a decision is made (based upon the poll). I can pretty much guess what choice will have the most votes in the end.

For now, the clean-up is complete. I have left several topics that have high post counts and numerous pages. I have not had the time to check them, so they will remain.
The criteria by which I cleaned this subbie will be used for any future clean-ups.
