I believe that this has a lot to do with threads falling off the front page very quickly nowadays. This is caused by the volume of single-photo posts, many of which fill up the page then slide down with little or no replies posted. Just look at the last few threads started to see examples of this.
The solution to this would be for each poster to use a single thread for their 'old photo' posts, in much the same way that armyjunk2 did for his fascinating Long Island photos. This would have the added bonus of keeping the interesting photo threads near the top and easy to find, rather than 'spamming' the boards with numerous single-photo threads, which clog the front page, move other threads down the order very quickly then rapidly sink from sight.
I've noticed that the dynamic of the board has changed in the last year or so - there seems almost to be a competition to see who can start the most threads nowadays. There seems to be a move away from the warbird current scene, at least in numbers of new threads, to posting archive photos. Lots of threads, fewer posts per thread.
I'd be interested to hear what others think about this.
