I noticed that this fourm is very active and that the threads get buried very quickly.
I was wondering how old the last post of a thread needs to be before you would
not consider replying to it?
Also wondering about the other fourms on SD like hot deals.

I tried to bump the discontinued food thread when I saw this across the aisle at a local Walmart.

I thought they were my beloved devil's food Twinkies only to have my dreams crushed when I saw they were chocolate cake Twinkies.
If someone posts on a car forum with problem X, gets no answer for 3 years and then I come upon the thread, I might reply. The OP surely solved their problem by then or stopped caring. However, the next guy who comes upon the thread may still looking for an answer (as that's how he came upon that thread in the first place).
If someone posts a new story about how some guy got his d**k stuck in the pool drain (this happened), I would just read it, think "wtf" and move on without replying.
