I suggest 30 days after the last post to a thread. Any comments made after that long a delay are almost always by newbies, gaming the 15-crit requirement, looking for threads where they can put up a quick one-liner, and frequently screwing up the Board and screwing over current posts by dredging up a batch of dead threads.
If we do change to thirty days, I suggest an announcement, and a permanent statement somewhere, to alert those of us who run electronic or hard copies of their threads for reference and copyright purposes.
