Pruning forums

Post by **Inquisitor** » Tue Aug 01, 2006 3:33 pm

I would like to prune the forums, to reduce the database size.

I can prune topics that have not had responses for a year, it will not affect announcements or stickies (that I am aware of).

Any objections?

I don't see any need to keep "dead" threads open for longer than a year. Cleanse away!

Well I would jsut assume keep the posts as archives but if its needed then go ahead.

No problem here if it needs to be done.

Yes it is getting big..

Hence the problem with the nav manager.. I have no problems with the pruning.. Besides, The Ham Chronicles aren't even in our forum.. (so I was more trying to elude to a joke.. hahaha)

Can you give me a couple of days, there's a few posts in SSX WoW EU that I think would probably benefit the SSX WoW US peeps that would be effected by this..

The database is too big on a relatively small forum like this one?

Well, we don't just use the database for the forums

Take the technical details up with weenie boy.

Yes, I won't be doing anything till at least the weekend. It claims stickies, pollls and announcements are immune, as well as anything replied to.
