30 days can be a bit short for the necroposting rule - I like the idea of 60 days.
The reason for it is simple - an abandoned thread no longer has the attention of the OP, and is likely to spin out of control or be hijacked for another purpose.
Threads are best when they are topical and kept on-topic. If you want to post on an old idea, start your own thread. No-one is going to reply to your post of their post from 2 years ago.
