I've noticed that too lately. What's up with all the older posts being revived? I didn't get the memo...

??? This definitely isn't the thread I posted in.

Something is weird with the forum. lol

Think I figured it out though... I was scrolling to the bottom of the "What did you do to your C5 today?" thread in order to start a new post, and the quick reply box loaded AFTER the stupid "Show Related Thread" thing did on the bottom of the post, and that's where it put my new post.
