...ask for suggestions on how to improve things and be thankfull that people respond .....for every 5 minor/annoying suggestions like mine - who knows you might get a Gem next time - just call it "Optioneering"

LOL I guess its because I have seen so many sites/forums/systems that simply don't have the features at all I have learnt to put features first and eye candy/convenience second. Hell, I do everything at the command prompt here.... that must mean something
Short answer though, yes, I do appreciate suggestions and I am grateful that people are providing us with them

An alternative to searching for a user would be to go to the memberlist and click on the PM button for the person you want to PM

To be fair, for those users you PM regularly you must know their username. For moderation tasks there is a PM button for the user on each post, and on all reported posts in the reported posts panel. Then there is the memberlist with various sort options, and then on top of all that there is the username search.

Of course it's possible, but isn't the last month enough?
If a topic from a year ago suddenly becomes active again it will show up in the 'Active Topics', so I can't really see the need to show topics that haven't been active for months.
If you want to find an old topic, then the forum search is much more applicable in this instance.

The whole point of the 'active topics' page is that you're unlikely to miss something if you visit that page often

I'm afraid that simply due to the number of results such an SQL query could return after we have been online for a while would just be too high, and it may simply hang; especially seeing as it isn't just one query that returns that page - its several.
