    I noticed the Similar Topics at the bottom of a topic I was on. Can you change it to only show recent and updated posts? I accidentally replied to one that hasnt been active since 2005. I didnt notice it until I replied. I did delete it tho.
    Just a suggestion so we dont accidentally bring up old posts....

    Thanks
    Jason

    That way you can read similar posts. If it is only ones that are recent thier might not be any listed

    It shows only the related posts with the last replies.. may that be a day old or a month old.

    And you should be checking the "Last Post" date before replying ;)

    So I shouldn't get to see the older relevant threads because someone else is too impatient to look at the date ?

    Do you have your date format set so the year isn't shown or somthing ?

    Hi, I love reading those related threads, and I too have accidentally brought a very old post back to life when I first signed up at Digital Point.

    Capebretoner brought it to my attention :D

    Of course, I did not know how fast this forum moves and how quickly a post from a couple of months ago will get moved to the back page.

    As mentioned, yeah, I now try to check the dates, but I have made the error a time or two ;)

    Honestly, I still feel like a n00b here because of the pace this place changes and grows.
