Channel Archiving
Tidy away channels nobody uses any more
Watches the categories you choose and, when a channel has been quiet for the time you set, moves it to an Archive category or makes it read-only. /archive preview shows what would go before anything happens, staff are told, channels you list are never archived, and /archive undo puts one back.
