When I come here I click on the 'what's new' tab at the top of the page. The posts are listed in most recent order of last post. That view also shows the original date of the post as well as the most recent post. If it's a topic I'm interested in, I'll still look. Probably just a matter of some newer folks looking at various topics of interest to them and they post accordingly. It's all good.

This is Geri...the one who posted the original comment about old posts. I wasn't really complaining, I too, sometimes have missed the original thread and don't mind "catching up". It just seemed that morning there was a slew of old pics with current comments....and I clicked and got involved in the discussion, reading on and on, then looked and saw the original post dates....and realized that I had seen them "before".....granted some of this info might be helpful to newbies, and even remind some of us seasoned members of something...I just will remind myself to look at original post date, before I click on it.....hope that doesn't make me a curmudgeon....

I get amused at new replies to old posts in regard to family dramas. pictures forum...no problem. Easy to miss them when new or if they preceed my membership. Nice to be able to search for specific techniques or types of quilts....no big deal if originally posted 5-6 years ago. What is "old" becomes new to those who have not seen it before.

The date is shown on each post. But when new posts are added, and you've gone into that a ways, it's hard to remember that it is an old post.
