I kinda like reading old threads when I'm bored, but that's just me. I understand what you mean about it getting cluttered, but... idk, I'm just not big on the idea of completely erasing old forum posts, because I just generally don't like the idea of getting rid of old stuff (I know that I'm odd lol).

@ Raptor: I can understand that. However, my abandoned threads usually said "please delete this" and nothing else so there's nothing for you to read... they should be deleted.

^ Ah, I support that part of it. If a player wants an abandoned post to be deleted, then I definitely think that it should be.

Perhaps an official 'mark for deletion' button that would remove the post from active view, and place it in some queue where mods could then review and delete it.

I have this RP that has been dead for the past 6 months that I certainly don't want to be deleted! D:

I would love a mark-for-deletion option! Yes please!

Perhaps have both options where players can mark for deletion and mark to save? There are a lot of inactivity (and pointless) threads that should be deleted but owners probably are inactive as well. Those threads won't get marked... Mark to Save can protect threads from getting delete even after long period of inactivity... If owner didn't mark to save, that thread will be deleted after # months of inactivity?

EDIT ON 05/15/2018: Actually, at this point, I don't care. I just want my old threads to be deleted somehow.

Please do not delete old threads unless they are marked for deletion. That is one of the most frustrating things to me on any site. Unless the site absolutely needs the server space, I am absolutely against this. I'm perfectly okay with the suggestion for a mark to delete button. Anything else, please no.

^{I'd prefer a mark for deletion option, none of this automated deletion. Another solution to your frustration is to order the search/subscriptions newest first, since they're oldest first at the moment (which doesn't make a lot of sense). A lot of players use old threads to look for and confirm prices things they've bought. Suggestions need the older posts so players can see what's been suggested before and not make the suggestion again and again (even though they don't seem to check anyway lol). I used to hate having to remake my horse sale thread every 3 months just because it wasn't "active" according to the game, so I don't support this suggestion.}

I like keeping the threads because often I am looking for an old tag/character/whatever sale to check the rules. Also I like Andromeda's last point. :)

@ Maple, that's why I suggested "mark to save" so people can save their sale thread or old character sale threads.

What about the option to delete your own thread?

@ Alicia, that's not possible because that means we can delete a thread with an evidence of disputes or whatever that mods will need to review.

I support this as long as the "mark for deletion" is only available to the user that made the post in the first place.
