The "Post Information" shown on the "View New Content" page shows the last post details made on each topic listed. I don't find this particularly useful. What I really, really, would like to see is the date that the FIRST post was made, then I can avoid all the ancient topics resurrected by new subscribers in their initial enthusiasm. Any chance of this change being tried for an experimental period?

Here here, just fallen foul of that trap myself

Is this a serious problem?

It would be handy if it showed both.

I think they've just fallen foul of the Chris JW thread, as I did. I don't think it's a serious problem, and can be quite entertaining when it happens.

 

Or perhaps the John Orentas thread. Mmm.......

I think it works well, if you;re not on line for a couple of days or even a day, you can easily catch up on the latest posts posted and not miss anything.
