    I suppose one answer to avoiding a sub forum for dead/inactive threads would be give the OP the option to close the thread when the thread is either complete or no longer valid, similar to adverts.ie.

    The header text could go from e.g

    For Sale - M4 CQB SD and other bits to For Sale - M4 CQB SD and other bits

    I would agree with that would be a huge change in a few different ways.

    1: If your selling multiple items you can change the header when items have been sold so people will not go into your thread and inquire if items are still available.

    2: Will stop 99% of Necro threads, People have no excuse as the heading says ALL ITEMS SOLD.

    3. It would stop repeat threads when someone is looking for a trade on an item but then a week later decides to sell it he normally opens a new thread with a F/S header. In stead all he would have to do is change his original post(meaning he gets a bump and people know that he is selling now).

    4. Would also help on the bumping issue going on at the moment and allow people a little more control
