Re-viving good and interesting topics

[Angrboda]

You can revive any topic you like, but we have a rule against replying to threads that have been inactive for more than thirty days. There is nothing to prevent you from starting a new thread on the same topic.

And to be fair, you HAVE been informally advised about it before. I suspect that part of the reason for your warnings is that you chose to ignore that advice.

As a said before: I did not "choose to ignore" a warning.
I did not see any.

That said - can somebody tell me what "harm" is done by re-viving an "old" thread, however old it might be?

One of the problems in reviving an old thread is that many of the posts may be by members who are no longer with the forum. People end up spending a lot of time replying to dead people to no good end. If you start fresh with a new thread, this doesn't happen. You can always link to the old thread in your new thread.
