Old Threads

I have now added a feature that when thread is older then 90 days it forces you to check a checkbox to prove you know that the thread is old and probably doesn't need to be bumped. If you go a few pages back in some of the forums and look for a thread that is older then 90 days, you can go down to the quick reply and see the message telling you that the thread is old and probably doesn't need to be bumped. I think 90 days seems like a good number of days before that message appears. What do you guys think?

I think it's a great idea and a good choice of time period.
