Hello AG Community/Staff.

On the "Community" page, there is the section "Last Posts" that show last posts in topics of certain forum sections, right?
| Topics | Posts | Last Posts
(ie: The Tavern | X | Y | Z )

Anyway, I recently noticed that a few necro topics started to appear under the Last Posts place. That means: Topics with 2 months old posts appear as the more recently posted!

Is that happening to the whole site or my computer is going "cuckoo"?

Thanks for the attention

It's a glitch, it has been there for as long as the "41 years ago" glitch. It is rather annoying, but considering this has been an issue since the dawn of this site, I doubt it will be fixed before AG3 is launched, possibly with the new forum.

It happens to me to nearly 70 % or the forum. It's so annoying. The Community should be 40 % better if that problem didn't exist.

Yes I have made a thread about this before and it was answered. Quite an annoying bug. I also hate how threads who were just posted on recently and show up on the last post slot, don't show as the first thread on the actual topic.

So many complaints for such a little problem.
It does not take that long to just click the actual forum to get the last posted thread.

Roger, you'r computer is not crazy don't worry (So don't smash it :P)

*phew* Thank God! *puts sledgehammer away*

Plus, AGv3's Forum System will have this problem solved? In an "annoyance scale", this is, eh... 6/10. In my opinion.

It should, but I don't know if it will or even if the problem will be relevant.

I think that a solution to this would fit just fine. Last days I've been noticing a massive Necro Bumping by AG users that didn't remembered to check the last post date.

I, myself, ALMOST posted in a thread by kacboy that contained those stuff you paste in your profile (cross, the AG shield, etc.). I just avoided posting there when I checked the last post: 2009.

It didn't seem that massive to me, but that might just be because of all the falsely reported "necros" on Strop's profile I have looked through.
But it is generally an idea to check the date. I also believe this thread has been answered, so I will lock it now, so it won't be necroed later.
