Before criticizing the revival of what you consider to be an 'old thread'...
THINK:
1. Does that old post contain information that might be valuable to someone other than yourself? 2. Does it interest someone other than yourself? 3. Would it make a change in the life/lives of anyone besides you? 4. Does it reasonably condense or bring together dialogue or information about a particular subject, vs. creating multiple new threads or posts about the same thing? I am sick and tired every time some slack-jaw comes along and interjects "this is an old thread", or, "that post is 10-20-however many years- old". Think about someone ELSE for a change, outside of your own narrow little world, before contributing negatively to a conversation that others, beside yourself, might find helpful or useful. And if you have nothing to contribute to the dialogue besides "dude, you're replying to a old thread" - keep that to yourself, and scroll the F- along. Thank you kindly for taking the time to read this. |

I realize that when someone comes to this newsgroup for the first time, stumbles across a question (the first post in a thread) and says "Oh, I know that," he's eager to participate and fires off an answer. But (and this should be required reading before posting here (or on any newsgroup with a long memory) first, you should look through the thread INCLUDING THE DATE OF THE INITIAL POST!!!!!!! and know what's already been said. Maybe we should lobby Google to limit the age of posts shown in a search to a few months unless the searcher specifies a larger age limit. Mind you, their search feature is apparently slowly getting less and less usable as time goes by, so maybe this will happen automatically. -- Tciao for Now! John. |
