Value of old threads
I know I'm free to use whatever time period I want to use for reading a thread, but has there ever been any thought given to reducing the size of some of these older threads? I'm seeing that a lot of information is very outdated and/or correct. If a thread is 30 pages long, should I start at 15 or 20 or 30? It's hard to know what's still timely and what is not. It may be too laborious for mods to do that but I'm just curious if that's a possibility.

'Mega-threads' are out of control. What can the TB do to fix it?
