There was a new answer on that one yesterday ,and probably removed afterwards

but real problem is that post and edit dates are confusing people
the post date appears as a small text with a light gray color and if someone has edited a question then
his username appears as edited at ### by xyz

and further updates appears as made by the fist person who edited post

Consider this question
How to send mail using classic asp[^]
Posted at 22-May-15 and probably edited by CHiLL60 at same date

when you open that question first thing you will see is edited yesterday
Solution 1 , caused that question to flagged as new , but it still appears as edited by CHill60

if you remove solution 1 today ,because member has posted an answer to an old question
Question will be flagged as new again , and edited today by CHill60
and this will cause other members to assume that's a new question

i have fallen into same situation a week ago D'Oh! | :doh: , a spammer has posted a spam to an old question and it was removed later
Then i saw that question as a new one ,and first thing i saw was edited today assumed that question updated ,and i wrote an answer to that without looking at the post date ,yes that was my mistake and i will not do same thing again

but i see every day a few old questions pop up with new answers

Questions should be read only after sometime ,6 months or 1 year for example
A warning text could indicate that the question is pretty outdated
Or at least post date could be a little big-bold
and that edited field should not be updated whenever someone posts a new thing because people assume that question itself has been edited
