    It seems to be an ongoing problem that outdated mod threads are bumped up when they don't work because users see the mod marked as "Released" or "WIP Released" or whatever when it should be "Outdated". I think for a new user it's not so obvious that they should be checking the date of the mod when it doesn't work for them and it is incorrectly flagged.

    There needs to be a system where admins can mark an old mod as outdated and I think we'll get a lot less of this problem.

    That's what we do already.
    But if one goes to hunt a thread from 2014, and that thread was left with a 'Released' tag, then..

    What if when a mod goes outdated, you put it in a separate tab? ie. Add a "Outdated mods" tab and everything that gets the Outdated thing, goes in there?

    There is a 'flashy-red' tag on it.
    If people miss that already, a separate tab won't help much.
