I'm okay with old threads being re-opened, though it can make being a moderator hard when you don't recognize it right away. :o

But I actually prefer if someone starts a new thread with a link to the old thread and asks for opinions, etc, that way.

Kathy Smith Project You. It's the only workout series I could do at 6 am because I didn't have to think. She doesn't whoop in this one, either. ;)

But isn't this the one where the background exercisers are miked, which is a HUGE, HUGE problem for me.

Of course, reviving any of MY old threads is not gag-inducing! ;)

I tried to edit the title to show that the thread is old, but I couldn't. I put a note in the first post. It would be cool if posts older than a year or so could have special icons, or something.

In defense of the person who revived the thread, I will point out that she clearly marked her post with a warning that it was an old thread.

Personally, I could care less if it's old. I got a huge kick out of it. This thread was before I joined VF. I never would've seen it had it not been revived. Alta's comments are hilarity itself (especially that she considers Pilates the exercise equivalent of watching paint dry), of course, and the poster who said a certain cardio workout usually had her praying for death caused me to bust a gut. Thanks, ladies! :)

Besides, according to Leslie, there possibly are NO truly boring workouts - see my sig line.

It doesn't matter to me if a thread was old. I actually really enjoy reading old threads.

Alta, your comments always make me smile, no matter when they are from :D
I needed that today-thanks!

Take care,
Sherry

Yeah, but you don't see that until you've read the first several pages without realizing it's so old. Posting that it's an old thread doesn't really help when people start reading on page 1.

Yeah, I prefer that too.

Unfortunately most of Kim Spreens w/o's that I have tried seem about 25 hours long. I really want to like her too...

Yes unless its somewho time sensitve, I could care less. If I notice a thread w/ a TON of posts that I havent seen I assume its old and check the date. I would think if it bothered someone they would just start checking the dates of threads (glancing at the date on the left the post)

I can see how it could throw a mod for a loop though.

Right next to the title of the thread is a box with a "v", click on that when you open threads and it takes you to any post that was written since your last visit. No more wading through old posts!
