Fixed Thread list date limit unexpectedly affects sticky threads, too

The forum setting "Thread list date limit" ("list_date_limit_days") affects sticky threads, too. If the last reply of a sticky thread is older than the specified value then it's implicitly made not sticky. Since the "Thread list date limit" is essentially a performance optimization, I wouldn't expect it to affect the effective sticky state of threads. (Furthermore it worked differently in vBulletin.)
 
Just a quick question on 'Thread lists date limit' ... what happens to the threads that are removed, are they archived and still accessible by the members and search engines?
 
Yeah there is a link to remove the limit on the last page and they will appear in forum search results etc. so nothing should stop members or search engines from finding the content.
