What happens to forums after nobody replies to the last message? And why do they stop to begin with? I have like six hundred views on this one forum and six replies. What's up with that?

I think that provided they were not locked they still exist as active threads. The most recent or most posted threads show up by default. But the ones that have not had a post in awhile would need to be searched for by name.

forum limbo - trapped between being a useful thread (heaven) and being deleted or closed (hell). however, just like in the actual limbo, these threads have the possibility of eventually achieving a place in useful thread heaven (and they don't even require a pope to make some changes to the previously accepted moral laws).

Useful? How so?

useful = a thread that is in use (i.e. a thread that people are adding posts to and people are hence 'using' it)

I enjoy a healthy dosage of deleted forum thread in my morning coffee.  It's anyone's guess where the rest of it ends up.

Haha no it's just one of my sayings.  I say that I put just about everything in my coffee.  For instance, maybe tomorrow I will imagine it has rocket fuel.
