why does it even need to be 120 days old?... I mean seriousely.. I'd think 30 days of archive is enough....or even 7 days... who needs the giant archive... I doubt anyone here really looks back that far.


It's called "History."

Does your local library throw out books older than 120 days old?

AmigaZone has a "Press Releases/News" Message base that goes back over six years. It's easily and quickly searched, and nothing is ever deleted from it, except for the occasional spam that creeps in..

History is important, at least, it is to me. YMMV..

The problem is, NOBODY ever bothers searching.


I do, because your front page only lists ten "Forum" topics.. can't you expand it like you can expand the number of News items shown with one one of those pull-down thingies??..
