Hard to determine, but it appears that the 'recent' algorithm has something to do with what question has the most recent view. What I have seen on most other boards is that 'recent' is ordered by the most recent ACTIVITY, either a new question or new answer posted.

What is the algorithm, and could it be changed?

I know that currently I scroll all the way to the bottom of the forum to find the newest questions. I had asked why don't they allow users to adjust this and they are saying that they are working on it.

Thanks, ACANTU. Kind of counter-intuitive.
