Any interest in a forum area for persistently unresolved posts ?

I'm talking about posts on n days old that have no replies from the main forums being moved automatically to the Expert/Unresolved place ? Once it gets more than, say 2 replies it gets moved back to where it was originally posted from ?

Is that too much work ?

Just a suggestion really so there's a place for bored experts to head straight to......

I don't think that that will happen, but are you aware that you can sort the posts by either clicking the "Replies" heading or by selecting the "Number of replies" option in the first dropdown box in the forum footing?

Yep,

aware of that feature but my network is soooo slow as to make that a tad painfull...

I just tried clicking the Replies header. Looks like it sorts the threads in descending order of replies. Maybe I shall need to click it once again so it then sorts the threads in descending order. Looks quite difficult. Shall try the combo approach next....

Its a good idea actually in my opinion.
And also for people who are trying to bump up their post counts, that would be a pretty good way too...

After you click it once, a little arrow is added to the heading. To sort it in the opposite order you need to click the arrow and not just the heading.

Can we have those arrows right beside the column headers, so we can just click whichever arrow we want and get the sorting done?

That is where they appear. In any case something like that can't be changed.

Yeah, but that's only after you have actually sorted on that column

Ah, how I wish I could give that kind of a reply to my boss

Yes, I guess since the vBulletin thing is template-driven or something, changes like that may not be easy to make.....
