Odd problem.

[The Dude]

I've noticed a particularly bizarre glitch here on the forums, and I hope it can be fixed, as it is obnoxious, though not very hazardous.
The problem is that threads with polls pretend that they've been posted in recently, and insist on being at the top of the list. Like in the Soap Box, where a post by this dude named umbreot keeps changing its date, at least according to the subforum display. But when you actually go in the thread, it turns out that the post was posted in August, not November.

It's been noted a few times before.

Though it is annoying. =/ Does anyone really care every time a poll is voted on?

That's actually an intentional feature, not an error. But it's not meant to support thread necromancy. If that sort of thing, where old threads are being brought back by poll clicks, is happening frequently, then I'll disable it.

 

[The Dude]

Please do. It's really getting on my nerves.

 

[Archaic]

Done.
