Just my humble opinion w the talk of battle tags or other ideas for forum quality of life changes but seems like it may be pertinent to point out the EU forums have the function & it would stop the weird years old necroing of threads that happens
But locking the threads after 2 months inactivity 
I think that would be nice. To me, an even shorter period (like one week) also seems appropriate. Sometimes, someone responds to me about some thought I had a month ago, and their post seems so random because I forgot the thread even existed.
In the meantime, we might as well make the best of it and keep bumping
I will see you all in the future 
Hello future me!
That sent me on a wild ride.
Idk why but some threads lock and others don’t.
Some of my threads lock due to time abd sone don’t. It’s inconsistent.
2 months is a bit long, id lock it after a month
Wish all forums did it but sadly most dont
Btag posting and locking threads after 2 months inactivity would clean this forum up so much. I have no idea why Blizzard refuses to do it when their other forums like Diablo and Overwatch work this way.
Dont other sections of the forum have an auto lock?
Yes.
nah, that would just increase the spam. some obsessed person could legitimately make a new thread every week on the same subject.
One month or 2 months is fine.
This was kinda my thought process as well
Lock them after 15 minutes
I think 6 months is more appropriate.
Do you really want the forum to be “cleaned up” to the point where it looks like only employees posing as customer are on it?
I remember when people said don’t let level 1 characters post on the forum - they said not letting them would fix the trolling problem - now people think the next thing would ‘fix’ the forum. That addon didn’t ‘fix’ the trolling and it did as much or more than bnet tag.
As long as blizzard won’t moderate this forum consistently, nothing will ever ‘fix’ it to your satisfaction.
I’m not sure what you mean.
Btag posting would stop sock puppeting. Locking threads after 2 months would stop necros.
I don’t know how to answer your question.
They also said not letting sub 50 level players use the premade group finder would eliminate carry spam. It never made any difference, even in the short term. I just assume that the real purpose was to force new players to solo elite quests, or to keep them from making friends while leveling who might be a bad influence on them.
What I mean is, what you want is elimination of points of view that disagree with yours.
Kind of seems like they’ve fixed that. It was only a few posters that were involved, and they’re not posting anymore.
That will definitely stop inconvenient discussions of topics you are uncomfortable with.
How did “lock posts where no one talks for 2 months” jump to “you want to eliminate people that disagree with you”?\
Or are people unable to post if they have to post on their btag? Does that somehow remove opinions?
…what?
If a topic is inactive for 2 months…the discussion of said topic already stopped.
… this makes no sense.
Sock puppeting has definitely not decreased and not all necros are threads I disagree with?
Dude, is there something wrong?
The intern who knew how to do it went back to school.
Do you mean on the US or EU forums?
Cause on the US isn’t it only locked if a moderator locks it?
We don’t have a timer like situation that happens on the EU forums?
