I’ve come across an interesting question on the threadiverse that was asked two years ago and still hasn’t been answered.

What do you all think is an acceptable time frame for responding to unanswered posts?

Is there a general rule for when it’s too late to give an answer?

    I imagine a lot of those ones with shit tons of comments from a couple days old are just people who are sorted by active instead of hot, so it keeps them at the top of their feed when they log in. Then you find pinned comments at the top of subs, which someone may accidentally respond to even if they are sorted by something else.

    I figure so long as they are trying to answer a question, and not criticize someone’s point, should be fine.
