Why do some questions on here say they were posted "very recently" when they were in fact posted about seven years ago?

How do you know they were posted seven years ago? There's no date on any of them.

Murgatroyd Look at the URL in the browser bar, Irene. Each question has a number in the URL. This one is number 3494596 and it's one of the current ones. If they have a much smaller number, they were posted several years ago. If I remember correctly from my early days on AB, the one-millionth question was posted some time around September 2008. It's not difficult to work out roughly when they were posted.

Excellent question !! I find it a bit aggravating when my intelligence is insulted.

I don't know why they've brought all these really old questions out of the vaults, since most of the posters haven't come back. I could understand it if they brought back old questions posted by members such as yourself who have returned, but not ones posted 7 or 8 years ago by long-forgotten members. Apart from that, it would be better if they had the posting dates on them simply because I prefer it that way. Lol:)
