lol sorry its my fault, i looked under someones (forgot who) profile and then i looked under recent posts and i saw the title of this and decided to read it. i didnt know how old it was[/QUOTE]I'm finding it coincidental that we've had more than a few old posts being answered like they were posted yesterday - and the answer always seems to be a) I didn't realize it was on page 28; or b) I forgot to look at the date of the post.
Come on fellas - be honest. You know you are allowed to bump up old posts if you have something meaningful to add to them - sometimes resurrecting an old post and bring in a whole lot of meaningful discussion from newbies, and can prolong the life of a thread. Nobody has a problem with that. The Dwarven Throwers thread is a good example (it's spam, but it's an epic). The Lords of Darkness thread is another one.
I don't want to have to start remembering people's usernames for the wrong reasons. Honesty and open discussion is what we're all about here. If you want to resurrect an old post, and it's a discussion post (as opposed to a question someone asked), and feel like you have a valid reason for doing so, then go ahead and do it. But do it HONESTLY - not under false pretenses.
