Ya'll can delete this after.. I'm just really curious.
I'm noticing that threads get closed after a certain point. With Lisa's case threads going hot and heavy, sometimes I can find 3 new pages accumulated as I was reading through 1.
Anyway.. so the format now is particular topics.. We have the box wine thread, the cistern thread.. theories thread... etc. So lets say someone puts a question in there.. and half the people don't get to view it until they get home from work.. there is no opportunity to respond or contribute to it because it's already locked.
Is there a particular number of pages that threads are allowed to go to before they have to be locked? Is it because they bog down the forum or something?
If someone has something to contribute to a locked thread, is the correct procedure to open a new thread on the same topic?
I'm just curious as to why this system is in place. Pardon if I'm the only person here who has no idea. I'm just getting to some of these threads and it's a little bit frustrating that I can't add my :twocents:
