Forum household cleaning

Short update on the household cleaning we are currently performing in the community forums and around.

1) Posts older than 36 months are now automatically locked by a bot, preventing reawakening of ghost discussions, among others. More info

2) Want to Sell (WTS) posts older than 6 months are now automatically flagged as SOLD and archived in the WTS archive, making it easy to search for items available for sale. More info

3) Want to Buy posts (WTB) older than 6 months are now automatically archived, ensuring items posted are likely available. More info

4) Search in forums now by default limited to posts being 12 months old at the most, ensuring posts are current and more likely relevant to your search. You can still search for "Adam and Eve" aged posts (aka year 2000 CE, the year Nikonians was founded) by just changing the search time range. More info

5) RSS feeds from forums a bit improved, now with longer summary and more entries per forum. This should help those of us who are using RSS, if any. This was done to ensure we can easily publish posts in an upcoming Nikonians app More info

6) The way forum post signatures can be used has been changed, making managing signatures easier for you and preventing, stale and eventually broken signatures. More info

7) Awards received are now included in members portfolio's making it possible for you to show your earned awards, and pride. More info
