Default problems with old threads

sometimes people add on to old threads and give the impression that there is something going on upcoming when it really was a post about something months ago...safer to just post a new thread by clicking on Singles and clicking on Post Thread....the only things i have posted about this weekend are the dinner at city fire tonight and the movie sunday, as well as the singles dance sunday night. please see these specific threads for more info. i also posted that there is no car show tonight. that is sat and sun LSL.

Yes, and readers can too easily miss seeing the small font date of a post in that thin brown line at the top. As Kitty said, it is best to include a date along with the day of the week. Ideally this would be in the title of any thread involving an event, which helps people avoid wasting time clicking on out-dated threads. At a minimum, the date should be included in the first line of text in the opening post. Now, if only I can remember to always do it!
