I forget when exactly that particular action started becoming a lockable offense but its always rubbed me wrong.
Say i bump a 6 year old thread with the intent to start up the convo again as opposed to just shit posting. Itll still get locked.
The justification was, "just start a new thread". Why?! If the views expressed are relevant then why is that necessary?
Doesnt that just add more clutter? Remember when the forums needed wiped hhhhmmmmmm? Then you got this double posting shaming goin on and its almost a double standard.
stop the shaming. all posts are beautiful.

starting a new thread would give you OP control if you didn't have it before, which would also let you point people to the previous thread and say "hey go read this it's relevant". but mods locking old threads because they are old is stupid.

fakedit: honestly i should've found a way to double post this because postcount++ is meaningless and staff ought to at least try not to be hypocritical, but hey, rules are only for other people to follow, right?
