To be very frank once the thread is old enough there won't be any thing but irrelevant posts on that, therefore this would be better to lock it after a particular number of posts or a fixed time frame.

Some threads like " happy Birthday wishing","festivals","events" they should be locked after a particular period of time because after specific time they are not worth enough and there are chances that these threads get irrelevant responses. :blink:

Ideally they should be locked, but reason most such threads are left open is because once the stipulated time or the event passes by, the threads too get buried under current issues and events, and it is normally left to the members to be understanding enough to not revive them again. But currently I am seeing even quite senior and sensible members posting comments on such threads and that makes me question their intentions!

So in future, at least I have made a note to myself to not leave such topics open!

I agree.

I saw a thread " Happy Birthday to Atul Sir" was not locked even after 10 days of his birthday and the responses were still pouring in.I think this is our responsibility also to report such threads to moderators to lock them. :blink:

Atul being a senior administrator here and as he does not come in too frequently on forums, the thread was not locked but with respect to another similar thread, the less I say anything the better!

The fact is half of the threads are irrelevant and you cannot expect but irrelevant posts. The only solution is those should be locked as soon as posted before irrelevant posts begin pouring in.

Sanjeev, you have not made sure before making this statement,just go through the link, the thread was locked o the 5th day itself in a great hurry, where as other similar threads have remained live for months together which probably you never noticed...
