Since GR introduced the 'Discussions' feature to the Home page a few weeks ago, it has been obvious that new members have been posting on old threads in the hope of contacting family members or whatever.


Each day, many of you kindly advise these newcomers that the thread is old and to send a pm to the OP etc., etc.


I just wondered how much response you feel there has been to your efforts to help or, does it show that new members are being led astray by the word 'Discussions', and that they are posting in vain?


Wonder if GR are keeping a watch on how their 'new feature' is working? :-D
