Might help with all of the "if you just go back a few pages" replies we seem to have to post over and over again. It's your thread just a suggestion.

Very good idea!

So, even if it doesn't cut down on the noob repeat questions, it should at least help those of us that *do* read back.

Personaly if I've been away from the forum for a few days and realize there is a new ROM, I'll simply search for all posts by Juicy and locate the one where he posts about the new ROM. I read on from there.
I really really hate to ask this because I may know the answer already but....why aren't new threads created for new ROMs? If we assume that a new ROM resolves most of the previous ROM's issues, there would be no need to search the thread prior to the post for the latest release anyway. For the most part right?
On the other hand, I guess it would be harder to tell which was the latest thread because you'll always have people posting to an earlier thread if that's the rev they're still using....making that older thread appear above the newer one in the main "CDMA HTC Touch Pro Upgrades" area. Did I just answer my own question
Could always do what software developers do....stop providing support for older revisions (don't hate me). The old thread could then be closed to new posts. Food for thought. I'm probably not realizing how others may use or depend upon the previous posts in the thread.
