So what I'd like is to be able to notify users that they are posting in an old thread and show them our necro rules before they are allowed to hit submit. Ideally this would happen when they hit 'Post Reply' or 'Go Advanced', before the post is added to the thread.

So basically, I'd like a modification that adds a customisable notice to a thread older that 'XX' days which the user will definitely see before submitting their reply.

Anything like this out there already?

this is a realy great idea i always get mad when ppl bring back old threads i personaly dont know how to code this but if someone did code it i would definatly use it
