So the threads are counted after they ahve been closed. And the results are always about 60 days off the month in which they are posted.
This is not the terminology used by every other forum website in existence.

Threads are not often closed at all on other forum websites, either, and so forum convention on the internet has usually been that a thread is considered dead after thirty days after the last post and it is extremely bad form to continually revive these threads which are over 30 days old and considered dead. Nothing actually prevents people from posting on these dead threads, except people calling them out on it (see "necro-posting" ) when they do. People who make a habit of doing this are often warned by moderators that such "necro-posting" is not generally allowed, and should be avoided as a matter of internet protocol and politeness.

Everywhere except here, I mean.

Just because you "can" still post in a thread over thirty days from the last post doesn't usually mean you "should".

1) Red Hot Pawn's Private Club Forums also remain open indefinitely.

2) Public Forum closure after ninety days seems to be somewhat of an arbitrary convention.

3) "Just because you "can" still post in a thread over thirty days from the last post doesn't usually mean you "should". ~Suzianne
Agree although there may be exceptions when the topic is stillrelevate to our lives and times.
