We never formally defined things... we just created the "defunct" category the first time we came across a web comic that no longer existed. That said, I'm willing to throw out an arbitrary guideline to start discussion with.
We give a website a year from its last update to update again. If it doesn't, we consider it "moribund" -- whether that gets a category or anything is up to folks to decide later. "Moribund" becomes "defunct" after... how's three years sound? This can of course be overruled by things like the website vanishing or the author saying "I've quit, there'll be no more".
