A Query

When you necro an old thread, many times the participants in that old thread are no longer around, so you end up replying to people that don't exist, which pretty much dead ends the conversation. Additionally, posting in discussions is a good way for people to cut their teeth on a topic. If you're replying to something that already has a bunch of responses, it tends to discourage that kind of participation.
