Thread Recycling
 
While I appreciate our desire to be efficient, do we have to constantly add to ancient threads? For example, If we want to talk about the Flyers going to see Kostas play while in DC, can't that be it's own thread?

The top thread today has 900 replies and started two years ago. I didn't even click it. I don't know what's new and don't feel like clicking to the end and then trying to scroll back to the new content.

Electrons are cheap. Do you think we could retire threads after a time?

If that's how the kids are doing it these days, that's fine. I just find myself not participating.

Is this just me? Am I getting old? I just thought I'd mention it because this site was a daily visit for me a decade ago. Now it's weekly at best.

Just my good spirited two cents.

Length of threads isn't aproblem if you hit "view first unread" takes you to the first post you haven't read. Easey Peasey

Yeah, the downward-facing arrow in the box next to the thread title is a shortcut to "view first unread post."

Personally, I'd rather people add to existing threads on the same subject rather than start a new one for whatever mental diarrhea they think the world needs to know about. But it's not my site so my vote means nothing.

Also FYI, the rightward-facing arrow in the box next to the last poster's name will take you to the last post in the thread.

Thanks for the tips. Still makes no sense to me to post to a two year old thread but whatever you whippersnappers want to do ��

You have 175 posts. It's sometimes fun to be reminded of what people posted way back when, particularly the highly negative and prolific posters.

Sir Shocka, you speak wisely. Fake king rollo spends too much time on nonsense. As the real king, I promise only to give relevant material.

King Widget the modern (and humble) ...out!

Luckily a handful of us know the King and thankfully the self anointnedness doesn't carry over to real life!!!

I'm more offended at Widget and him attempting an invasion!!!!

Might as well invade lunch at Milano's on the 30th to see what you're up against!!!!

Invasion??

Lunch at Milano's??

I declare a Royal emergency! And will construct a wall around Milano's that will be paid for by BW3!

Now, if you'll excuse me, my trainer and I have some work to do...

Sir Fake King Widgette, under whose authority did you permit madame TerryK to access to a computer whilest in royal solitary confinement? How dareth you usurp my Royal authority! Further attempts to overthrow thy Golden Kingdom shalt be dealt with swiftly and effectively as thy Queen's royal choir needs a few more eunuchs and the golden razor could use some exercise!!

So let it be written.

So let it be done.

Go Flyers! My Team!!

King Rollo the Enforcer...OUT!

No offense to Ed Streit but if she was our Strength & Conditioning Coach we'd probably have a bit more engagement in the weight room. All joking aside, Streit is doing a great job.

Not necessarily. If you are like me and regularly cleanup my website history and cookies, you start at the beginning. dUDe is right, it is painful and I do the same thing, i.e. sometimes don't read them.

Also, the new messages usually are not consistent with the heading. The one on Kostas was titled "Source: K. Antetokounmpo to test draft waters"? The only thing in common is his name.

Heaven forbid that someone posts or starts a subject that has been covered before.
I constantly retell the same stories and re-ask the same questions over and over and it doesn't bother me!

Personally, I'd like the heading to change when the subject matter changes...within reason.
