Cleaning up old ads

Still another 80 ads that need to be checked... There seriously needs to be an automatic expiration date on them, requiring action from the OP to renew the ad.

Truer words are rarely spoken. Is there a way to set up the ads so that they DO expire? I would think that in 99.99999% of the ads, a four month period would be more than enough. And if they DID expire it would be up to the advertiser to renew the ad, rather than us to look at it. Axe them all, and even consider axing a few posters thereof.
