It's common knowledge/unspoken rule that you don't bump up dead threads from a year or more ago. I've had to lock a couple of threads in the UK board because of you. Well maybe they should have been locked before if you didn't want anyone commenting on them i don't get the problem. Oh there was a common knowledge between old timers that their is an unspoken rule of what to post on and what not too (how newbies know lol?) Sounds more like an old boys club not open to newbies. I didn't break any rule and I don't appreciate either you or Grumpyoldman trying to belittle me over trying to abide by your rules for seeing the classifieds. If you don't want things commented on lock them or i could go and comment on every old post and be doing nothing wrong. Sorry to inconvenience you I mean, why did you have to go to old threads to get 50 posts, there’s plenty of new-ish threads 🤷♂️

Or i was genuinely interested. The others was i just wanted to comment on a generic thread that didn't upset anyone (I didnt judge that right) by getting in the middle of a conversation or wasn't too niche. Oh Thank you for not straight out attacking me like some of the others.

The "don't top old threads" thing is such pearl-clutching garbage. In 2006? Sure, made tons of sense, because the boards were hopping, and every board was moving faster than even the WWE and Mattel boards (easily the two most active boards here) move today. But now? Come on. The places where old threads are topped the most are D E A D. People out here acting like an old thread jumping to the top of the Lounge or Ent board is going to cause some great disruption to the onslaught of conversation happening there.
Besides, this is a good thread and should have never fallen beyond the first couple of slots on page 1.
