It's hard to stay relevant in this wiki these days, eh?

That said, I don't understand why one would move talk page content from a talk page to an archive (which is really just another sub-talk page, from what I know) when the talk page isn't completely cluttered or frequently edited. I think there's no reason to archive a talk page other than to clean it up because it became too long. If it's a random talk page that has only one or two topics from god-knows-when, there's no need to archive it.

Regarding user talk pages: It's true that anyone can edit them, but that doesn't mean that everyone should whenever they feel like it. Same reason as above: If the user hasn't been active for years, he most likely won't get any more messages on his talk page, thus there's no fear of it becoming too large.
