Old thread alerts. Good feature, does a good job. The problem is that it doesnt stop me reading them.

Perhaps you could add a trollface to the message at the bottom, for more lulz..... or put the message also at the top Thumbs Up

Done this so many times too. It is a little annoying when you get to the bottom of the page before you realise that what you've been reading is eight years old. Neutral

I also think that there should be some type of alert at the top of the page. So much time is wasted reading old shit (a lot of which is mine).

I would say to just check the date of the posts... but I have too many times got to the bottom of a thread with something to say and low and behold...

All it needs is a little sticker at the top saying "OLD THREAD"
