There are no rules for closing a thread. In fact there is no reason we have to close a thread. I don't think our threads got very long often in the past. I have this unfortunate effect on all threads, in all forums I have participated in.

In a nutshell I guess we can say let it run until it starts to get hard to read, or if a user requests, unless there are admin reasons involved (matter resolved, etc.) In practice, someone may come allong days or even weeks later and all a question. In the recent past I only closed threads by request or if it was outdated and archived them.
