Thread Resurrections????

[Panache]

Gentlemen,

Speaking for myself (Mod Hat off) I think that one of the great things about X Marks the Scot is that there is such a wealth of information on Kilts and Scottish culture available to us -stored away in the old threads. Sometimes a resurrected thread can be a very interesting one when our older members can reflect on what has happened since they posted.

I actually like it when an old interesting thread pops up. I have been here a year but I still feel like there is so much I still have to learn. Looking back at a time when Riverkilt still had single digit kilt collection is rather enjoyable.

I agree that it would nice for people to read the dates on older threads and think a moment before responding. But then again I wish that most of the people out there in the world would stop a moment and think before saying or writing anything.

As long as there are people, people are going to make mistakes. I think the extra work to put locks or delete older threads isn't needed if people can just politely work together to teach our newer members to excercise some good judgement.

Cheers

Jamie
