Threads From The Dead (TFTD)

Is it just me or do I see lots of "THREADS FROM THE DEAD" coming back up after 3-7 years?

Excursion Thread Resurrection seems about normal - I believe there are just less new threads as folks leave and fewer join.
PLUS, not very many "new" issues can appear for something not manufactured for 12 years.

I resurrected one recently and it came from a question about a post in the tech folder that didn't quite give me an answer. I didn't want to start a new post as it could be helpful for anyone searching the tech folder with the same question.

Agree, it means folks are searching previous threads for answers.


That said, there are some very entertaining threads the deserve a read when your in the mood for entertainment and have popcorn.

Reps sent as I'm sure our moderators aka Red Letter Dictators would agree.

Misky, besides learning from our past mistakes and picking at healing scabs, really your question needs to be asked in a more appropriate thread.
