Does MP delete/archive old forum threads?

No matter how much searching I do (internal MP search, google search of all of MP, etc) I can't find some old threads where I posted some info I'd like to retrieve. They certainly weren't deleted or closed by any mods.

I also notice that my post count never really increases.

Does MP delete old threads to keep the DB size down? Or for any other reason?

Slight correction: we do delete old "For Sale" posts.

Ah that might explain it. There's a good chance that the discussion in question took place on a FS thread.
Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
