Legacy info from forums

I have not been on forums for more than a year or two. The forum was where I went to get legacy information to support older versions. People running legacy version where can they go to lookup info that was in the forums?

So far I have noticed these forums have:

Spam AND NO WAY TO FLAG IT!
mixed languages in post
poor search facility
user profile (no local TZ option or other user fields)
strange formatting in preview window

How very UN-evolved

It needs 2 clicks, would be nice to have an dedicated button.
Also it would be nice to flag a thread without needing to open it first.
Even better would be some heuristic spam filter (new user posts something with suspicious keywords or links).

thanks I found it with that clue - wow that is cumbersome,obscure and I assume there is no way to tell it has been flagged already. Still quite UN-evolved.

We already have feedback threads about both issues. You're welcome to browse the section.

Damn they are still using "grey cog" on white background no wonder it is hard to see it and find it, and it is a bad choice for old screens and LCD laptops.
