And a thread which would be hindered by both of these restrictions is
Oz Fest #7" – Adelaide South Australia - Memorial Day Weekend, May 28-30, 2010.

This is an example of a thread which needs to run for its specified time regardless of its length. So if the proposed restrictions are introduced then hopefully there would be careful consideration of which threads would be affected. Maybe on a forum by forum basis?
