While humorous at times, it seems that we have had a spate (spat?) of old threads being resurrected. If there is new information or possibly corrections, I can see a new comment being added. Since the threads are searchable, they provide continuing advice and information.

But sometimes, the replies to these old threads seem to be questions or advice that seems a bit useless after 5 years.?ÿ

Perhaps there could be a warning that pops up: "You are responding to a thread that started 5 years ago."???

Hmm, that's a really great idea. I'm not sure though if and/or when I can implement it. But I really like the idea a lot. 🙂

Interesting thought and very liked.

Perhaps the posted date could automatically change from grey to red flashing letters after some length of time after posting.
