I would like to prune the forums, to reduce the database size.
I can prune topics that have not had responses for a year, it will not affect announcements or stickies (that I am aware of).
Any objections?

I don't see any need to keep "dead" threads open for longer than a year. Cleanse away!

No problem here if it needs to be done.

Hence the problem with the nav manager.. I have no problems with the pruning.. Besides, The Ham Chronicles aren't even in our forum.. (so I was more trying to elude to a joke.. hahaha)

The database is too big on a relatively small forum like this one?

Well, we don't just use the database for the forums Take the technical details up with weenie boy.
Yes, I won't be doing anything till at least the weekend. It claims stickies, pollls and announcements are immune, as well as anything replied to.
