Well i made the suggestion before to close them after 6 months or so. Then they couldn't post to a 16 year old thread.

 

I often wondered this, why don't inactive threads autolock after 6 months or so with admin ability to reopen if a thread closes that shouldn't, like say someone's person project thread.

I find it weird though how many of these there are, new join date, 1 post count, its like they join specifically to answer the one post knowledgeably and then disappear, Im not sure what all happens behind the scenes but would almost seem like a BOT/spam/scam things, but I'm not sure what they're gaining or accessing by making 1 post

 

I forget what the response was(for not closing them) but i would think it would be an issue with the site software. The spam posts get deleted usually within a day.

 

Honestly they should keep the old threads cause there is still a lot that can be learned from them but people need to pay attention to how old it is!

 

Well that's the problem, They don't. As you can see the guy that posted(#7) has not been back since.
