Chassis & Mods - Thread Display Option issue

[AGTDenton]

Wondered if anyone else has noticed this but when you go into the Chassis and Mods sub forum, it appears there's never been a post (except a sticky). https://forums.hexus.net/chassis-mods/

I finally realised the default 'Thread Display Options' is set to 'Last Month' rather than 'Beginning' like all the other forums & sub forums.

I double checked that it isn't my caching or a user setting by trying a logged out Browser I rarely use and in Private mode.


Don't know if someone has the power to change it

This may be indirectly my fault. We were getting a lot of ancient thread necro resurrections by new joiners trying to up their post count so I got a bit fed up and asked the mods if anything could be done. My suggestion was stopping new joiners posting on anything older than X months. They said this was too difficult but I think tweaked the forum settings to try to limit default viewing of ancient threads. So while this is annoying I think it's the lesser of two evils IMO.
