Can the older, out-dated messages be deleted...
or put in reverse order... for example on the visa requirements one..
the first message read is dated 2005...and as we all know , that's not relevant today...and rather than trawling down through the years of messages, surely it would make more sense to have the newer messages first read.
In fact, why keep messages older than 6months or so...or keep more than say 50-100 on any one topic?
The baords have become 'cumbersome' and time-consuming - wading through all the out-dated and therefore, confusing information.
What say you? |

They say they haven't got time to do it but if you find any threads that are out of date then to tell them.
Other forums automatically lock threads of a certain age. |

They most certainly won't.
The $$ value of this site is in the pages of information that are listed, no matter how old or outdated they are. |

| What's the difference between trolling and trawling? |

Doesn't mean they can't lock threads over a certain age. |

Maybe they like the search broken cuz it means people have to register and post the questions all over again . hence exposing them to more ads on the site. |

Exactly what I was thinking. However it is kinda rude not to reply to me. This is a professionally run website after all.  |
