[QUOTE="Stopspying, post: 1009196, member: 69368"] Thanks for your replies, I understand the reasoning and managing things like this does keep the site reasonably tidy. But I'm surprised that there seemed to be quite a few threads that were only started this month which have been 'archived'. As with many tech issues the issue can be 'live' for a while and new developments can occur in response to the initial matter over quite a long period afterwards. Having things set up as they are seems to me like it will put off people from following up on things, or leading to there being numerous threads on the same subject. For example as and when companies like Apple respond to the EU ruling covered in the original thread that I tried to post a new development on. I'll be honest and say that I think that I'll be unlikely to go through the process of requesting a thread to be opened up again. In the past I know that I've added to threads which were started longer ago than the start of the current month. [/QUOTE]
