Haha I hear ya and do!Feature them
I was just wondering if ppl actually create a specific forum node just for these type of threads or how to organize them somehow.You could do a forum with permanent redirects.
It would involve moving the thread to the forum with no redirect and then moving it back to the original forum with the permanent redirect.
Not sure how that would really work though in practice or how useful it would be.

I did that on the previous incarnation of the site, when we were on phpBB, but I found the threads more or less died as they weren't in their rightful place.
Useful posts ? Make it an article.
My suggestions:
XenPorta 2 - DEMO: http://8wayrun.com/threads/soulcalibur-unbreakable-soul-available-now.17967/
or wait for the new Article Manager by Bob.
EDIT: Anyone know of XP2 has a Category Cloud ? I really like Category clouds.
That seems like a bad idea.Haha I hear ya and do!

I do nothing with them... because what's hot today, or this week, isn't tomorrow, or the following week. I have auto link working, so if anything is just that awesome, then I will hook it into the auto link feature and make it easily accessible via keyword links.
I admit many of those topics are dead, although it's not clear if they would've died anyway, some topics stay alive. Another thing @surfsup can do is create a single sticky thread in each forum, containing links to interesting/best threads of that forum.
We use XenTag for this. This makes the best content easier to find, adds significant pagerank to old threads, and helps categorize the threads as well. It also creates a very organic way for members to discover the best threads.
For example, in addition to your other tags on the thread, you could have a tag for "most liked threads," "most viewed threads in 2014," etc. The more tags you add, the more PageRank will be brought to the threads and the more helpful links will be added for people browsing for content.
