We've all been there... click on a thread, start reading through it, anxiously anticipate joining the discussion only to get about 90% down before you realize it's a 2 year old thread some n00b replied to...

My solution would be a simple HTML banner, maybe red background with white text or whatever above the first post that says:

Warning! You are viewing an old thread.

We could set how old the first post has to be before it's considered old... I'm thinking maybe 3 months but maybe 1year would work better for some people, so the more options the better.

Seems simple enough, any takers? I will personally nominate for MOTM

VB3.8 please.:up:

That's not bad but I would prefer a message to a check box, will try it anyway.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
