Time to delete some topic boards?

I've just seen a topic which is called "only joking" and two of the last five threads are either racist or disablist threads.

And of those five threads, one of them goes back to 2004 so the board is barely ever used.

Isn't it time to do an audit of topics and delete some? There's all sorts of random stuff out there - do we really need it kept forever and ever?

Is it time also to consider an expiration date for all boards, not just chat? Maybe one year for all topics apart from Classics?

Hi there
Thanks for drawing our attention to these. We're going to take a look and get back to you soon.

Update: We're having a sort through of topics at the mo and will have a cull of the dead ones in the near future. Please do let us know if you spot any you think have run their course and we'll take a look.

@Queenbean

I don't think there are ANY theads across any of the boards which are so useful that the info can't be googled

Maybe apart from the sticky on top of the relationships board

Many people use MN instead of Google, though.
Just saying
NB please see YABeckyMN's post - we are going to be sorting the topics, we promise.
Happy Friday all
