How long is "after a certain length of time"? Apparently, a matter of hours?

Otherwise, the thread would be continually bumped by users asking what happened to the release and/or coder, and the forum would be much harder to navigate through with many "dead releases".

Uh, so why not just lock the threads/archive 'em?

The behavior and attitudes on both sides of this issue are disgraceful. So a talented coder gets pissed off at one frustrated staffer's tactless comment and retaliates by harming the entire community, including people who have thanked and supported him. Then the mods immediately yank his threads to eliminate all traces of the guy, even though the very software they're supporting includes a very easy solution to prevent the terrible "bumping" feature.

Is this Jelsoft or Junior High? C'mon guys, you're all better than this bushwah.
