No warning on posting to ancient threads?

Thread Starter 
I've noticed an increase in new users posting replies to 3 or 5-year-old threads, where the content is not spam, but an honest reply to the question (not a "hey, I have the same issue", either). I remember the forum used to warn you if the last post was more than a year (?) old. I just tried posting to a 5-year-old thread and saw no warning.

Any way we can get that back? Seems new users are arriving via search engines...

Thanks,

Jeff

That was an add-on hack that's not compatible with this software, but something similar has been mentioned as a future enhancement.

This is really happening a lot the last few days - don't know what's causing the frequency to increase, but there's been a number of years-old thread revived for no reason (one was 5 years old!).

Just some text in the basic reply window with the warning if the last post date was >6 months old would probably fix it...

Sorry MIke - but "hack" or not there are so many of these little things that made the "old" site much more robust and user friendly...........

IS there an issues list that can be shared with the AVS community at large, so we see what has been reported, is it being worked on etc?

A Google doc can easily be shared for all to see................

All feature requests are made in this forum but any list of things in progress would be internal to Huddler as each release affects all of their sites at the same time, not just AVS.

Discrete posts make it hard to grasp the total issues the community has.
Plus, it would reduce repeated complaints.

I'd think AVS owners would want their own tracker list, to compare and hold Huddler accountable .

Tell me when you went with them there was a agreed KPI on issue resolution.

Yea, I've been involved in lots of 3rd party outsourcing agreements, so well versed in holding companies accountable.
