It shouldn't be this hard. Basically, if you don't get much traffic on some of your boards you can set the default to show for the past year or something like that. This way, new users will always see some posts.
Yes, but if you do this the active threads form is quite useless (sorry for the word)... like there is no real sense for it on these type of boards. I would much rather delete posts older than 1 year than have this form up there.
Another reason I dont like the form is because it just makes the page look too full. Too many options for the average user. If we are to have it I think the above suggestion with a text stating info on it and a link to View All threads would be the best... doing this I would then move the search box to the bottom left of the Jump to box.
