It would be nice if board posts became listed descending by the date
of their last append. This way replies to older posts wouldn't be
missed, and inactive posts would quickly go to the top.
It works really well on bulliten boards. -cackle-

That's a very good idea.

God i love that idea, i usually just rant on this board
but every once in a while i make a good point, and when i make one
I usually make 5 or 6 more :P but I had been gone for a week, and nobody
reads the post anymore -sniffle-

The date IS posted, very clearly, which indicates when a post
was written upon last. I think if someone has been
keeping up with a post, and see that was written upon, they
will read it... -poke-

It's not a bad idea, but I must warn you that there are two areas of
code where no coder wants to tread: boards/notes code, and the order
in which particular order we deal with keywords/objects-of-actions.
That's because the board/note code is a HUGE mess, and the keyword
ordering is a HUGE pain to deal with because of the gazillion places
it's used, and what makes sense in one context is silly in another,
and that's just in interacting with socials & objects...etc etc.
