The removal of certain threads within a forum. Q. What is a Dead Topic? A. Any Topic that has not had activity (IE a post or vote) for longer than 90 days. The topics that fall under these categories have been removed as of today (10/03/2008). However, any topic after this date that falls into the above category will now be moved to the new "Archive" sections under each forum section. The reason this is being done is to clean up the forums and provide an easier and less cumbersome experience on the forums for new and old members alike. After today, the forums will be "cleaned" every two or so months by an administrator or moderator to preserve the clean 'spit-shine' look we're going for. We appreciate the cooperation as we continue to try and improve the forums here for new members. If you have any questions or Comments please feel free to PM Ace or Keys. Sincerely, Spore Forums Administration.

After the OP here in this thread, all threads and topics that remain inactive past 90 days (with the exception of admin/mod notes) will be moved to the archives.

While we may delete intentional spam and annoyances, we don't delete for personal statements and opinions It's a pretty free nation here, but we aren't without rule.

Yeah, like how you didn't delete my topic about Obama. *sarcasm for those without sarcasm detectors*
