@Dutchdwarf: Two of us have been active checking older threads. We may not have acted in a similar manner. Fact is that the criterium to endorse threads was way easier to achieve a year ago than it is now. We'll have to decide on a very clear criterium on how to deal with older threads. Easiest and seemingly fairest is to enfirce the new criterium, but I can think of some valid objections.

@Rocket: Both mod and temp mods have the same tasks regarding in-thread forum moderation. As noted above, that part of our moderation work will only become more relevant. So, on the contrary, the temp mod assistance is ever more important. I do think we have shifted the focus for in-thread moderation from rule enforcement to 'assisting posters in improving their posts'.
