<p>[QUOTE=&quot;-jeffB, post: 8661488, member: 27832&quot;]I think I&#039;ll propose this feature to the XenForo folks: when a user tries to post to a thread, add a delay that&#039;s proportional to the time since the last post. For a 17-year-old thread, I think 17 minutes would be appropriate. 17 hours would be a bit over the top. Maybe they could even make it play Rick Astley as hold music while you wait.</p><p><br /></p><p>Or, barring that, maybe a pop-up <i>warning</i> saying &quot;you&#039;re replying to a post that&#039;s X years old; are you sure you want to do that?&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>For bonus points, don&#039;t let the user post until they&#039;ve at least <i>scrolled</i> to the last post in the thread, even if they haven&#039;t <i>read</i> them all. (That feature would&#039;ve saved <i>me</i> some embarrassment in the past!)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
