In each of the forums, at the bottom there's a drop down menu that (I think) default to the last 100 days. Click it, and select 'From the Beginning' and it will show all of them.

I think he knows that ted, his problem is that people go to his site an click on a topic, OOooops no threads visable, person goes off to another website. Alot of people that come to your site don't know that clicking on the show all from the drop down will display all the threads, and if they have to do that it makes it look like your forum is unpopular and no-one posts there so why should they post either. The default for the forums should be to display the most recent threads irespective of how long ago they were posted.

I could not find any such direct mechanism in admin panel to that, proably it will need some sort of hack. If anyone in here has implemented it then please let me know how to do that.

in newbb v2 /modules/newbb/viewforum.php change:
$sortsince = !empty($_GET['sortsince']) ? intval($_GET['sortsince']) : 100;

to:
$sortsince = !empty($_GET['sortsince']) ? intval($_GET['sortsince']) : [color=008000][b]1000[/b][/color];
