Am I crazy?

same thing happened.i guess we are both crazy,but what else is new?

When I use the 'Forum Jump' box to get back to the board index page, it sorts the threads in ascending order, from oldest to newest. That results in the first page being taken up with threads from 2005. It's just an annoyance to me. But I was concerned about the impression it might make on site visitors.

Here's what I mean:

OK. I'll 'splain it to ya again. S l o w e r.

The problem is, that when returning to the main board page (index) via the 'Forum Jump' box, the thread sort on the index page is wrong. Specifically, the threads are sorted from oldest to newest, which results in the first page of thread listings being from early 2005. You can see this in the video, starting at 1:07.

The reason I though it was significant was that it makes an inaccurate (and poor) impression on visitors to the site. In the scenario I showed in the video, a site visitor might look at that first page, and conclude that there's been no new content added since 2005. Remember, the people that find their way here are often under great stress. Not to mention the 'least sophisticated consumers' among them. We need to make it easy for visitors to find information. Otherwise, they'll simply go elsewhere.

Clear as mud, right?

Ohhhhhhhhh, duh!

I was wondering why all these threads from 2005 were getting brand new replies.... this is probably why.
