on: February 16, 2006, 10:30:25 PM

what's the point of responding to a topic written like 2 years ago?

some old topics are much more interesting than the most recent ones.

the current topic proves the point

it's not the same thing
some recent topics require a frequent response (such as sheet music reqest)
and suddenly someone respond to a topic written in 2004, and those old topics pop up before the recent ones

in that case, it would be a good idea to get a new board ...where topics before a certain date, if popped up again would automatically be moved to.
