This has confused me as much as the next person... so long as the next person is also confused.

So, I think what happened is that Reddit's allowed communities to archive and unarchive posts if they want to (save for a few specific categories like news), meaning you really can go on posts that are 6 years old (it's always the ones that are 6 years old) and comment on them, scaring the crap out of whoever made it a million years ago. Thought that was a glitch.

I don't know how the other mods stand on that, but personally I would leave it as it is in case you suddenly decide to go back to a post from 2 years ago and scare the living daylights out of someone who commented just before a post archived.

So... what do you think about it? Cool or codswallop?
