For me it is/was very confusing....the first one was reported in spam&abuse, I could recognize the current answer for a two year old question.
All the other N year old questions came "on top" because edit==delete spam, but the answer of today was allready deleted.
So it is much more transparent if the question does not become the actual date after removing "spam"

(Spam reports || Protector delete) != (improve answer/question || owner delete || new answer)
It should be possible to differenciate.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

*lol* and I was thinking I'm the only one -because I'm a n00b- who does not understand what is going on. So for all...please think about such thing if you you have the feeling to rebuke a n00b what is going on.

I learned it in the hard way, when innocently answered the question and got comments about answering year old questions (I didn't checked the date as the question was on the top of the list)... 
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Same for me, I do not crosscheck everything....ok, the longer the more I do. But what I observed, same happens also to other very high pointed members, that they answer three year old question, because it came on top because of something we discuss her

Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

Chrome has an issue too.[^]
The little orange box next to the All tab.
IE does the same as Chrome.

New users won't know to use the ctrl-arrow combos, and the rest of us don't need to go through the sticky posts every time we visit.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

You're assuming that new users will actually read some of the stickies/FAQs ...

No. The only assumption I'm making about n00bs is that they won't know about the Ctrl-Arrow combinations. Meaning that only regular users need to be optimized for wit them.
FAQs are to beat n00bs over the head with when they don't read them. Even the LART wielders don't need to read them again every time they visit the site.

Would it be possible to show the date/time that a given file was uploaded?
