Not exactly sure where this would go, but it seemed best to put it here. Anyway, this isn't in reference to any specific instance in which I accidentally revived an age-old thread ( ), but I do so wonder why the revival of age-old threads is disliked. There are various reasons I can come up with easily, though I want to know what the staff's reasons are for disallowing this besides it being a forum-norm.

Thanks in advance to those whom answer.

It irritates me sometimes when people link people to other threads to read instead, but I suppose this thread would explain better than I could.

One of the MANY threads regarding this issue.

If you do a search, you'll find even more threads where you question is answered.
