don't bump ancient threads please :p

If you have something to add or ask in the matter you could hardly call it a bump? :eek7:

Or maybe you should auto lock all threads that noone have answered to in the last 15 min. :worthy:

Even if it's a reasonable thing to add to the end of the discussion you have people reacting to flames and comments from 5 months ago as if it's today's post.

If it's more than a couple of weeks old you can make a new thread :p (and link the original post)

random aside: do you find that addressing your posts as "LOL @ YOU!" does you many favours?

No, maybe I chose the wrong title but my sense was serious. :)

point is, if you bump an old thread most people won't notice the date - see the hib relic raid thread that someone bumped on excal/RvR yesterday for example.

It's not stupidity, when you read a thread, is the first thing you look for the date it was posted? Ofcourse not. You start reading the posts.

Yes, but before I reply I do check the date.

just playing devil's advocate here, but if you make a new post about something ancient, don't you generally get a reply of "search, been done before"?

as you were ;)

gotta say, I prefer bumping old threads, instead of making new ones if the subject is thesame. You notice soon enough anyway when you see people talking about milegates etc, and Wheee, patch 1.36 is incoming tomorrow~~!!~!~!
