Hi, is there any way to mention someone in these forums? For example, if there's an old post that was never resolved, but is closed to new replies, and I have another comment for it, how do I get the attention of the original poster?
You can post a link to the old thread; however, the chances of the OP seeing it is pretty much zero. With over 3 million users here and the majority never returning after their initial question, it is highly unlikely that they would see it.

Time here is best spent helping with the latest questions. I totally agree with babowa: In the two decades I've been here, I've see only handful of original posters (OP) return to a thread that is weeks of months old.
Coming here from a search engine can be misleading because search engine hit lists don't discriminate between active and locked threads.
Ok, thanks babowa and Allan Jones!
