Eh.
I think that is the best and most appropriate mod decision ever. And considering the mod who made it, I'm totally shocked.

Honestly... yes, ok, it's a month since the last post before the new one. But it's the same posters, on the same topic, and we really don't need MORE 2008 US Election threads.

Eh.
I that was pretty funny, considering your usual posts. As a small question what counts as a zombie thread, is it one made a year ago, or six months or earlier?

This is actually why I'd prefer that in addition to all of the threads we have, we not dig up old ones.
However, the thread passed into oblivion on it's own, so there's no really reason to do anything.
Well, can you bring the hammer of MOD down on a bunch of the people from that thread so I can be right? Cuz I'm always right.

It all depends, but generally, after a few months one should probably start a new thread rather than dig an old one up.
When I see threads from a year or more being posted to, it's pretty obvious that it needs to be locked. ;) Especially when there are lots of posts from posters who are no longer with us.
