If you are away for a while and post to a thread that fell off the first page that was of interest to you, it gets moved up. Otherwise, your post might be ignored.

However....

1. It enables trolls. With a couple of words, a troll can keep their thread near the top. We currently have a troll post from March on the first page. It only takes a word or two to move any post to the top.

2. Feuds never fall off the page. There have always been feuds. But in the past, they would fall off the page and get out of the road. If someone wanted to continue the feud, then they would have to start a new one. As it is now, they are always front and center.

Interesting topics are few and far between. Yet the trolls and feuds are always at the top. Don't know how to fix that.

Just my two cents, which we all know isn't worth a whole lot any more...
