Expired Threads v1.0.1

Click Install For Support
www.vBHackers.com

What this does
This will allow you as the admin to set a time limit till a thread is considered expired or in otherwords closed. If the thread happens to be expired, the user will see a error message. But a staff member (ie, mod, sup-mod, and admin) can unexpire the thread by posting in it, then the counter will start over again. (if you enable this in the admincp) This will prevent those anoyying thread digger members we all seem to dislike.

Installation
Read the readme.txt file

Does this allow the person to still view the thread but not reply ?

can this be made so that the time limit starts after the last post? like each new post resets the time? so if a topic gets old it cant be bumped because it is locked after a certain time with no posts?

I'd like to install this, but the last number of posts lead me to believe this doesn't work for releases > 3.5.0. Can anyone confirm or deny this?

I'd like to install this but would first like to know if it works on anything after 3.5.0.
