Zombie threads (again)

I have noticed that when threads have had a response from MNHQ it tells us at the top. Can we have the same for zombie threads.

Something like 'this thread has had no replies for 30 days'

I read a thread, at get so annoyed when I get to the bottom to realise it was an old thread and I'll never know what happened.

It would just save us spending all that time reading an old unfinished thread.

There's a zombie thread alert at the bottom of the threads.

usualsuspect · 20/10/2013 12:03

Oh I see what you mean, the alert would be better at the top of the thread.

TotallyAddictedToLurking · 20/10/2013 12:18

Yes so that I know before reading the whole thing.

It might just be me but I read them oldest post first and never think to scroll to the bottom before reading.

Well ............. 30 days isn't really that long.

The 30 days thing was just an example. I'd just like to know if I'm reading a zombie thread before spending the time reading at and getting to the end and it has never been updated.
