    I'm not sure how it would be able to sort by the actual release date of files, without somehow rifling through the NFO or something. But another issue is that if you post an NZB thats 40 days old, it'll still appear on the front page because the index sorts by when things are posted on FST, not by when things are posted on usenet, which could cause some confusion if he's just looking for "what's new".
    If the board sorts stuff after usenet post date, and also sort after 0-day/new or whatever (a tag the poster sets of course) witch we filter it should sort out the problem.
    Stuff that's X days old could just have the "new" tag removed automatically.

    Not sure if that was clever but I have to sleep anyway

    And happy new year btw!

    We have the ability to sort by the actual age, ie the time the file was uploaded to usenet.
    The data is all in the database, see the "Age" column in NZB Index? That is calculated from the actual upload to usenet.
    I just need to make it sort by that value.

    edit: Wait, it already exists. That was easy.
    https://filesharingtalk.com/vb3/nzb-i...=desc&sort=age <= That link will sort by the date something was uploaded to Usenet.

    That's another great idea.
    Remove the "New" tag from posts older than X days.

    tesco; Could you have a layout like on private trackers where you can only view selected categories by checking the categories?

    eg.
    "Computer games don't affect kids; I mean if Pac-Man affected us as kids, we'd all be running around in darkened rooms, munching magic pills and listening to repetitive electronic music"

    Tesco,

    Would it be possible to make that the default? Maybe I'm crazy, but I (think) it makes more sense that way?

    It doesn't make sense that way, because if somebody posts something that's more than a day old nobody will ever see it.

    hope you guys understand what im trying to say and keep up the good work
    thank god i'm not the only one who's irritated about this. I'm from the netherlands (next to germany) and i just want to search for the original english movies. German spoken hollywood movies really sucks

    i prefer i check box where i can choose the language of the movies / games i want to search.

    I have 4 or 5 german tv channels and that's fucked up enough

    STERKER DOOR STRIJD !!

    Well at least ICE posts, so I'd rather not have people slagging him even if doesn't know stuff to well or doesn't know what is what, at least he tries

    PS we do have more Germans and foreign speaking people here than you think.

    then spilt it up, there are also alot of dutch people here. but we dont fuck up hollywood releases en post them.

    i'm not against foreign posts, but split them so i don't have to go through pages of german release before i found a english version of a movie.
