Old Themes Re-relesed as new?

I’ve noticed a few older themes that have recently been released as NEW and right back to the top.

So… If we are all to be treated fairly, I guess that if authors update older themes, they ALL get to go right to the top and treated as new releases?

I just want clarification of how TF is handling this. It is certainly an easier road to just fine tune older files and resubmit them as new if that is how this is going to be handled. Or is this just another Que loophole?

Please clarify this policy.

Thanks Jeffrey,

No worries, just curious to what was up with that.
