Forget it. It doesn't matter. Please don't post here anymore
almost cool:
what if when i search the forum i only find "old topics ?"
hihosilver:
You know, you have some good points there.
I think perhaps it came out of people posting in old topics and others got annoyed with it when they'd already seen the topic before. I do like your ideas, perhaps it should be okay to post in old topics. Sometimes it can be annoying, but when it's something like this I guess it makes more sense...
good points
RudySchneider:
The whole point about NOT regurgitating old topics is that, in most cases, there will be no benefit conveyed to the original poster. That's not to say that someone new to the forums can't benefit,but the whole purpose of posting in the first place is that the poster had something to share, or was looking for guidance, or had unresolved questions. After a couple of months, the likelihood that ANY of these is of interest to the original poster is fairly remote.
On the otherhand, I see absolutely nothing wrong with someone resurrecting an old post as a point of reference for a new problem, or questions about issues within the old post. But simply re-acknowledging that "it was great" doesn't really contribute new information to the original poster.
Or am I just obfuscating?
ENSONIQ5:
I agree with Rudy on this one. I would encourage new users to sift through the old posts, there is much info and inspiration in those pages, but avoid posting in them unless you have a specific question, best demonstrated by bumping. It would be better to start a new thread, with a link to the old thread if necessary.
