Why revive threads anyway?

[Peegee]

I have thread count per page set to 5000. If it isn't on the first page it's not worth my time.

[escobert]

I can't even read through 1 page (of course I have it set to 100 posts a page)letalone 20 pages

I always get tricked into posting old threads in the FF sections revived by newbies ;_;

[Lawr]

So I guess you tricked yourself here then eh?

[Fonzie]

Deleting posts can be quite fun to use, no?

No, now you're overusing it. Stop it.

Hey man I couldn't resist!

I can think of one thing that is more worth reviving than threads, but I'm not gonna say what 'cause it'll only open a can of worms and next thing you know this thread is about Cheese Weapon.

Now I'm curious about what I didn't want to say.

I hate old threads!

edit: oh now I get it. Aeris. Good one, Old Manus.

I just want to know htf you people keep finding threads I haven't posted in and reviving them. I mean, seriously.

The thing that bugs me about revived threads is when the moderator comes and lays down the law. I understand the "please don't revive old threads" part, but then it is typically followed by the suggestion, "if you want to talk about this topic, feel free to start a new thread."

[Leeza]

Please don't revive old threads.

If you want to talk about this topic, feel free to start a new thread.

I prefer it like this to the forums that demand there to be exactly one thread on a subject and if you dare to post a thread that has been posted before, regardless of how much has changed since the original post date, they swoop down upon you and enact vengence for not having used the search function, even if said function has a default time of oh, let's say 30 days.
