Minor elaboration: As far as I know, the system thinks a thread is "active" if there are more than 2 pages and the thread is not locked. So if you can click to go to the third page of an unlocked thread, even if the third page has only one post on it and even if the last post was made ages ago, then the topic icon should have moving lines. And if you can't go to the third page because the thread only has two pages to begin with, then the lines will not be moving, even if the first two pages are filled with posts made within the same hour or something
Edit: The threshold might not be 21 posts. It might be more like 26 posts. I just found a thread with less than 26 posts but greater than 21 pists. (21 posts = 20 replies, 26 posts = 25 replies.) But I've seen plenty of threads with moving lines and fewer than 31 posts. And I have never seen a thread with moving lines and fewer than 21 posts. I've also never seen a thread with still lines and more than 30 posts
Edit2: Found a thread with 25 posts (24 replies) and still lines. Found a thread with 27 posts (26 replies) and moving lines. Haven't found a thread with 26 posts (25 replies) lol
If anyone can show me a thread with up to 25 posts and moving lines or a thread with at least 27 posts and still lines, please do; until then, I'm going to proceed on the assumption that the only thing that determines whether the lines of an unlocked thread move is the number of posts, because I've never noted any
Edit3: Just found a thread with 26 posts and moving lines. So for the curious, until someone comes along and disproves this:
Moving lines = at least 25 replies (26 posts) total
No moving lines = at most 24 replies (25 posts) total

Context, consistency, and clear antecedents are golden.
