Huh? Three weeks is old? Maybe someone needs to update me on the idea behind having thread subjects. I never knew they had to have an author that was still a member. What does that matter? This is a thread dealing with an issue that I'm having trouble with, and I'm sure, no matter how old this thread gets, someone else will have this problem. When I use the search function of the website, I enter topics, not author names. I don't care how old it is, or if the author is 'around' or even dead, just so long as the answer is there.

Having said that, thank you NTDOC for actually putting a full sentence together for me. Previous of your post, no one actually said that there is no way for Kix to change permissions. If the all-knowing would have posted that in an 'old' thread, it would have saved me an hour of useless searching. That was the point Les.

Everyone gets chastised for not searching, but when I find a thread dealing exactly with my topic, the "answer" is likely not an answer. It's a moderator picking on someone for not searching or not posting properly. I suppose it's because you've answered the same question in the past, which I can sympathize with, but it runs afoul of your not wanting people to post to an "old" thread. I guess from now on, I'll search starting with the oldest threads first. Sorry to carry on, but this has bothered me for a while. I'm not picking on anyone in particular, just the overall experience here. I belong to other websites, and their search engine usually turns up good results because threads are based on topic only, not time. Does that make sense?
