Hi!!

I was wondering...by "pruning" a forum, does this mean to remove old posts? Or does this mean to archive them and have them available only by searching, etc. ?

Thanx much!

Best always,

9 times out of 10 it's referring to deleting the old posts. Most say "archive" when that's the goal.

Rule of Thumb:

a) Delete old posts that do not offer much help "now"

b) Archive old posts that may be of use later...

- Now if only FutureQuest followed the same rules :P

Thanx Deb. I thought that's what they meant, but wasn't sure ;).
