There are a number of forums here that I'm interested in, such as the ZBrush and Modo forums, but when I go to either all I see is a few posts going back only a month or so.

I've already figured out that if I click on the archive link I can set a date range to display, and I would hope that would keep it permanent, but when I click back to "top of forum" it again shows me only the few threads of the last month or so.

So then I figured out that I can set a bookmark for after I've gotten my selected date range and then the bookmark will always take me to where I can see all the threads, but again if I click on "top of forum" it reloads the aforementioned limited threads, so I have to reload my bookmark every time if I want to see earlier threads. For example, the ZBrush forum by default shows me threads going back only to August 28 2010, which  is only 43 days ago.

I'm not seeing any kind of option anywhere to make a forum permanently display all threads - is there something that I'm simply missing? I'd find it hard to believe that the forum default is to only show threads no older than about 6 weeks.

Thanks for any help. :-)

Edit:
Hmmm... it seems that all threads are like that, going back only about 6 weeks, just that the forums with few posts make it seem emptier.
There must be a global option for displaying a date range for all forums that I'm just missing.
