Pruning Forums (Deleting Forums)

Featured Replies

It is that time again; Spring Cleaning (okay, a little late, but hey, we get there eventually). We're going to commence pruning (read delete) of unused or underused forums. These will not be archived, but deleted. So, if one day you come into the forums and notice some absences, you will know what happened. While we are at it we may well be combining some forums as well. Jury is still out on that but if we see combinations that make sense, we'll see what we can do.

Deleting information should be forbidden by the United Nations.

 

Please archive them or make them read-only and shove them off right to the bottom of the forums page. Someone *will* need some information from those forums at one point.

Resources are not limitless. We'll be deleting ones that have been inactive.

As was my response.

I will admit to not being forum software savvy, but I understand it to be built upon the database concept. So I am wondering if the sub-forums could be exported and then have the material (postings) converted into a PDF file format? The PDFs could then become part of the Avsim File Library, maybe in their own section?

 

And no, I is not volunteering! My limited workings with SQL was a long, long time ago.

Of course, but someone *will* need info from one of these at one point and come complaining!

 

(And I'm not sure how extensively Google cache works.)

 

 

 

I wasn't kidding about deleting information. Nothing worse than having a problem and the most viable and promising link on Google leads to a dead/deleted resource (and isn't cached).
