With respect to the other answers, I would ask that any question that is
1. still relevant today
2. Of value to others who may also be searching for answers to that question
3. Is an actual, clear question likely to appear in search results
Should be answered if you have the time and generosity to do so.
cheers

Thanks for the response Chris. Of course I would remember those questions myself before answering. I'll post things in different format(Tips or Article) in worst case.

If the old question is still an active topic along with the evolution of the technology stack on which it sits upon, you can consider providing an improved version of a solution over the ones already available elsewhere.

Thanks, I'll look into it.

Found the bug and have fixed it.
Will be in the next deploy.
I cursed at the idiot who made such a dumb mistake, and then realized it was me

Could all "message closed" posts by that member also be automatically purged?
They aren't recoverable anyway IIRC, so there's no new data loss and it would save you (and us) a fair amount of time cleaning and polishing the site afterwards.
The only complication I can see is if someone responded to a message before it was closed down, but those don't happen often, and shouldn't be too difficult to check and exempt from the delete list.

Having the messages stick around a little allows the report to be reversed if it is required.
Only those with sufficient privileges can see the closed messages.
I try to do a cleanup on these types of messages every week or so.
However, if there is a need to do a clean up after a large Spam event, just leave a cleanup request and I'll use the tools I have to force the cleanup.

But on the other hand you said[^] that message history isn't preserved, so the original message content presumably can't be restored anyway. In which case having the "Message Closed" messages hanging around doesn't do anything useful, does it? Other than make work for you to tidy the forums of course!

For a short time it had status "pending".
But I did not get a message if it needs aprovement or was rejected.
The other morning until now I see only:

It's still in the moderation queue, waiting for approval. It's currently on 3, but it's still holidays, so things are a bit slower than normal at present as moderators are asleep / drunk / not working today.
Give it a few hours - it should get through tomorrow.

Me too. Today.
Clicked "Select Profile Image" button.
Selected the file with the file browser dialog.
Clicked the "Open" button.
Nothing happens.
(Tried multiple times with png and jpg in a few sizes.)
Thanks.
I thought that Retiring would be a good chance to update things.

Dear Colleagues,
First of all, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year of 2022 (The Lounge[^]).
Today, I've encountered an issue that the last vote for my article by some other member was not added to the votes count in my article's page Can QR Decomposition Be Actually Faster? Schwarz-Rutishauser Algorithm[^].
Here's what I exactly mean:
I would kindly appreciate if you help me resolve this issue. 
Thanks and happy Christmas holidays this year!

Looks like the votes are there now. Probably a caching quirk.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?

Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

Thanks for the explanation

To expand on Richard's explanation, "Reputation Point Hunters" and Spammers often target very old questions - probably not realising that adding additional solutions brings that question back into the "Active" list.
You will often see a spate of these around the "big" holidays (Christmas, New Year, Thanksgiving etc) - possibly because the fools believe that no-one will be "watching" - they clearly don't understand Programmers

Hi,

I've downloaded the file successfully.
However, this file is huge. 137Mb as we don't support 7z and had to convert it to a zip.
If the user has poor or slow internet, this file will be an issue for them.
Could you possibly package up the project into smaller, logical zip files?
