Under the new system, older entries are just deleted after they're solved or rot for too long. There's an archive for pre-move Ask The Tropers, if that's what you are asking.
They are not deleted, they just fall out of view. I could rig up something for people who want to see older items, like the OP. I'll move this to Tech Wishlist.
Goal: Clear, Concise and WittyThe current page for Lost And Found contains "353 entries" and if you search for a term that actually appears in the query, you get results from several weeks ago. However, the first page only contains the last few days.
So I don't think this is related to older examples getting "retired"
Edit: Ninja'd by the aptly named one.

Everything can be found on the Internet... except common sense.So, any news on this item's progress? I too think such a feature would be of great help for tropers who might need to rebrowse older entries when they can't remember specific keywords to for the search function. How far does the search function look into the list, BTW?

Fiat iustitia, et pereat mundus.It is rather annoying, particularly when you can't remember the right keywords. It would also be nice to be able to search for your items there to find an older query.
Yeah, that was the main reason I suggested this.

Okay, either I am missing a very obvious button somewhere, of my version of Firefox (3.6.13) isn't displaying everything on these pages, but I can only see the first page of both Ask The Tropers and Lost And Found. And this has been so since I first visited those pages weeks ago.
Is there a way to actually browse to the older items on those lists? I would like to find back my older queries, but I can't search for them with my handle (no results). I also don't know for sure the wording I used for every query, so it's difficuly to use the search function.
