Recently I saw too many people complaining about new forum members that replies to topics that were dead for years (yes, plural!), and even insults were posted for these members for re-opening dead topics. Let's get one point clear here: if the topic exists and isnt locked, it can be replied. Sometimes the reply can come late but it may add something to the topic. Probably a new forum member that does that post now because he couldnt post what he wanted earlier. So, there is nothing wrong to open old topics, except if the purpouse is to spam. If you have anything against what I said in this post or any comments, please reply. I just dont wanna see people being flamed here for ridiculous reasons.


Over and out,


Banshee

the point is that sometimes visitors tend to open threads that are very old, and have covered all the points on it, just to re-post the same point that was said before, but since they didn't read the thread, they just get yelled at by the mems who are bombarded with ancient threads because one user decided they wanted to drag the dead from there graves...

Not to mention sometimes they reply to threads that are so far outdated, that the topic isn't even fesable to be discussed...like for example any news thread more than 3-4 months old, since they are usually updated a shitload by the point that 3-4 month old thread is dug up..

No. I was bumping it because many people were forgetting this topic and complaining at those who were replying to old topics.
