each board has its own moderator. each moderator has the power to archive on "their" board (other staff members also have archive permission according to the discretion of the "powers that be"). as such, the criteria for archiving varies board to board and person to person.

folk need to realize that old posts don't automatically get put in the archives, only those that are chosen. hence, once a post becomes #201 (there is a 200 post limit for what is considered "active") it's pretty much gone (don't ask me the mechanics of this I'm not familiar with the scripts andgiee and the crew selected). i've seen posts on other boards go away and wished they were kept, THIS is why i'm making it known that i want your input on what to save.
