xooz, that is a whole lot of information 'loss' and complexity, not to mention "forcing" etc

'spam' ish posts are a separate issue even though it can overlap many other areas such as this and are most likely most commonly not bumps when by new posters

ever, for any reason? this is the problem with coded 100% of the time procedures.

did the past rules give a specific date?

are there any blanket forum-wide policies on FT? mods have a lot of discretion
Spam posts are deleted by “un-bumps” the thread to its previous position.

The Rules (blanket forum-wide policies on FT) can be read here; there is no mention or restriction about bumping up older threads. Iirc years ago two years may have been in the obsolete Rules.

I have mentioned the Best Practices Mods are encouraged to follow.
