Why don't they make the date of the questions more noticable?

No, I am the one that told you as a heads up that the post was years and years old. I’m not a power that be. I was just letting you know. Sorry if you took it as a slap on the hand.

I didn’t mention typos, so that must’ve been someone else.

Well, as they say in Australia, no worries mate. And thank you for clearing that up.

@NomoreY_A – I think that there is an expectation that people can read….. after all, you’re intelligent enough to come up with an answer to a question, so it isn’t that much of a stretch.

@elbanditoroso Point taken, maybe some bifocals are in order. I tell ya, getting old ain’t for sissies. And I always thought the hearing was the first to go.

I think hidden dates may have been for blocking data mining by “Giggles”. ;>)

Answering old questions is encouraged. People google stuff and someone could have found your answer and it could have helped them.

Think of it like Hitlers Wikipedia page. Dead for a while, but if something new pops up we should probably add it.

Answer as many old questions as you like. Most of us don’t stop following them, so if you answer something it might revive that discussion. We’re cool with that.

And g’day to you. Hope the budget wasn’t too bad for you.

Just a kindly word, @NomoreY_A: this site is no longer under active development, and those of us who remain are ok with things as they are (including a culture that’s inclined to be watchful of grammar and spelling).

We do tend to get defensive and even a little sharp, though, when a newcomer immediately starts proposing changes—usually to make this place more like whatever they just left.
