Steve -Although attention to details is part of or job, I wonder if something could be done at some time to at least pop up a message that the thread is so old when someone goes to reply.
Hate to see something that old churning up that kind of advice.
Especially on top of the correct starting point.
Hope everyone enjoys the Holiday weekend, if it is one they celebrate.
A good idea. I get caught by this sometimes myself. I'll add this to the list.
I actually don't care how old a post is. If I think additional information or a better solution is required, I'll post it no matter how old the post is. If someone resurrects a post with crap advice, let them do so at their own risk. There's better things to burn precious Developer time on, like getting rid of the IFCode Shortcuts to the left of the post creation window in favor of making them clickable icons at the top of the edit window. It would also be damned handy if the text color and highlight selections had a clickable color wheel (or at least a set of standard colors) to pick from instead of having to type "RED" for the color or some god awful RGB code.
Another set of niceties would be to update the code colorizer and move the smileys from the right of the edit window up to the menu bar, as well as the IFCodes .
