Because a troll is currently "bumping" old threads (from 2007) and quickly deleting his posts in System Wars, I suggest to the GameSpot administrators that to prevent "bumping" abuses that they have a program in store that automatically delete threads that have no activity for at least 90 days.

Something needs to be done about this now.

Edit: the user itself.

I'm not sure how effective deleting the threads would be. Sure it would cut down on the bumping posts but it would also mean that we would see an increase of repeatitive threads. Not only that but we wouldn't be able write in a topic and search for it. Deleting threads just would be a big mess because the whole history of that thread would be gone, making it a nightmare for mods and the admins.
