Why are some of the boards wiped and not others? If we're not supposed to threadmance, why are the old, Predator style posts from 2011 still hanging around? Shouldn't they be locked and archived?

We redid the rules on Threadmancing:
I'm also not sure what you mean by "locked and archived". We did archive every single Predator related thread from 2004-2013. Can you still post in them?

Why would you only wipe the Pred related stuff? In Sci Fi games, for example there are a ton of old posts. What is the point of those staying in place, if the board is revamping?
It is illogical to move the Pred stuff and not move everything. If your argument is that the stuff in the games folder is the stuff that is sci fi related, well then there is no point in moving the predator files, as they are alao, by nature, sci fi related.
If you're going to revamp the board, it only makes sense that you would archive everything outdated.

I personally moved a few Sci Fi related topics from our OT section to our new Sci Fi sections, to make it seem like less of a void, and make a base for old a new members to talk.You're right, that is the logical choice. But when we revamped the forum we weren't operating entirely on logic. The staff members, and members who helped with that process have all invested many years into the forum, so we were thinking 50/50 in logics and emotions, hence why we didn't just wipe everything, and started from scratch. We moved all the Predator threads because they represent 9 years of a community, afterwards i moved a few Sci Fi topics from our OT section to make it look like less of a black hole to new members.Not really, we archived the part of the forum we wanted to shift focus from, I.E. Predators. The entire OT section remains relevant, so we didn't archive that, except for a few select threads.
