Saucy, the old links don't work since the forum's move, though almost all of the the threads are still existent. I've gone back and "repaired" some links on important threads, so that they lead to the right topic on the current forum.
Aside from that, I think we don't have a huge problem with redundancy now, since the moderators normally keep an eye on new threads and/or "old" members point the way to previous discussions. Our membership is no longer growing so quickly that we have problems keeping up. Actually, sometimes it's a problem when old threads are revived, if the main reason for their existence is no longer an issue!
