Only Admin can remove threads from the Forum, and these are usually already marked as Taken or haven't been updated.

This very,very rarely happens and if it does, it is by accident. The dates of correspondence on all Reserved ads are checked carefully before they are archived. If you look at the oldest Reserved ads in the Baby Items/Toys/Clothes forum right now, you'll notice that they were indicated as Reserved on the 13th Nov and so will be archived in the early hours of the 20th, a full six days later.
If you wish to mark an archived item as taken, you can ask Admin to do it for you, or else ask them to temporarily repost it on the Forum.

All that Admin can do is remind Members of our Netiquette guidelines...here:

As you know, JumbleTown is not a charity site -- its raison d'etre is to help people clear up space in their homes/workplace in an environmental fashion. A Giver's first priority should be "I want to clear out that space, now" and not "Who deserves this item?" But of course, it's only natural to wish to pass on an item to a deserving person, but in the eyes of Admin, all Members are deserving, whether they be prince or pauper, courtly or uncouth! :)
