Someone is dredging up old threads

Iris L.

Some threads have no new posts, but some members are responding to threads from months ago.  Probably someone is deleting his or her posts, and thus reactivating a lot of old threads.  Be sure to check the dates of the original threads.

Yep Iris, took me a while to figure that out!  Read that thread for  half hour before I noticed the Aug 2021 date.   I guess I never have been that quick.

I didn’t pick up either!  Extex, I was reading one that had like 3 boxes on it! Thanks Iris, I didn’t know people went back to delete their post.

I have been noticing the old post for over a week now. Thanks Iris!

You have a keen eye Iris. 

Deleting a post within a thread will bring the message to the top. I also think edits will bring the messages to the top. I also have a theory that clicking on an active hyperlink in the message will bring it to the top. I may test the theory on an older post.

Interesting theory. So I had to try it. Didn't work.
