None the less, I think this is an important discussion that we should have, as it seems to be an issue. As Jet and Flat have already said, the wiki has changed a lot since the rules were made. If we aren't being as active as we used to be, maybe we could amend the rules to suit our needs. This is just a suggestion, but maybe we could extend the time for a thread to be considered old from one month to two months? That would give people more time to discuss if they come back with relevant information later on. What do you think about that? I'd personally prefer to keep the rule as it is, since threads being considered "old" and closed after a month is a pretty internet-wide concept. But if this is really something that people would want changed, it's worth a discussion. Mostly, discussion to rule changes have never really been brought up, only offhand demands to change said rule, so it's never really been done before.
