Suggestion Removal of "For Sales" Post after a certain amount of time

Hi All,

I have noticed that often "For Sale" posts simply seem to be abandoned without notice of sale or some other outcome.

Would it be possible to somehow make the posts automatically "inactive' or "deleted" after a certain amount of time without originator activity? Say one year? six months? some other time length?

I am sure that I may not be thinking of all cases where this might not be a reasonable reason for no action but it seems a bit cruel to potential buyers that a wonderful Camp Inn 'may be' still available.

Just throwing this out there.

Reading is a wonderful thing. . .

I just read that one of the rules on the For sale/wanted area is that "Unmaintained" posts will be marked expired.

But no time line is given for that action but it seems to be a rule that requires action by an administrator.

I guess I was wondering if this can be automated.

It's a great idea, but I always find myself wanting to give the benefit of the doubt to the lister that their trailer's still around. I try to watch for a few unanswered requests for info...
As for automating a deactivation of the post after a certain amount of time - you might as well ask me to speak Mandarin. It's WELL beyond my ability.
