Bungie, why haven't you implemented this feature?
Over on Gamefaqs, when a thread in any forum category has been dead for at least a week or two, it immediately gets archived and cannot be interacted with at all. You cannot respond to it, you cannot like it, you cannot click on member details, it's just -blam!-ing dead. All you can do is stare at it and realize you cannot do anything to re-bump it. We really should have had a feature like this by now, so people can't bump threads from 2009 if they feel like it, seriously.
Why hasn't this been done by now?

The way I understand it now is that threads older than 1 year are automatically "hidden" even if someone replies to the OP. The only way to see and interact with threads older than a year ago are having the direct links to them, and the only people you'd be interacting with are those that also have direct links to a particular thread at the same time (because the thread doesn't show up in the "latest" threads). It'd be pointless to include the archive system for the new website because conversations can happen in nested replies without actually bumping the thread. So conversations are happening in threads, but the threads aren't listed on the "latest" tab. And even if there was a particular thread from say... a month ago that was bumped and you could see it, you can just hide the thread and it's gone. IE - when a user "bumps" an old thread [i]now[/i] (more than a year old) it's not visible in the public forums, so you're really not bumping anything.
