I am not 100% sure on this but i think once it reaches page 2 of the posts it is considered to be archived and is "un archived" if replied to once again. You may want to query Nels about that, but that is my best guess.

I don't think it's a matter of time, but the number of pages a forum section takes up. I you notice on the top right corner when you enter a section (like General) There is an index from 1-50 pages, then archive. So it looks like when threads drop down past 50 pages they are archived.
