Reviving Dead Threads?

[PEPITO1O1O]

Ok, I want to know what the deal is with people say "Don't revive a dead topic/thread". Whats the big deal!?!?!? If it gets revived isn't that a good thing? Because hello 1) More posts and 2)More people being active.
So someone explain to me what is SO bad about reviving a topic/thread.

It cannot be explained, you just don't do it.
And the world keeps on turning.

lol, but there must be an explanation for this. Cuz if there isn't then that means people have the right to revive threads.
(So please a mod or admin, answer my question thanks)

The rules thread tells you not to. There's your reason.

None of the mod/admins care enough to reply, except the new ones trying to prove their worth. The cool ones smoke weed and have sex in a Jimmy Hendrix fashion.

Anyway, you don't revive dead threads because they're usually dead for a good reason, so there isn't any point at all in reviving them, when:

A) If its a question the asker has left or now knows the answer.
B) IF its a game, it sucked.
C) People do not care about stuff thats old.

'nuff said.

This was acutally a good explaniation thanks :)
And the part about the mods and admins, I agree with you on there (I hate those type of people)

Ok now if a mod or admin would care, you can close this now, because this question has been answered.

Yeah 1) this got explained already 2) i understand that its against the rules, but if there is no reason for it, then there is no reason for it to be against the rules :P 3) But there is a reason its against the rules (even if I dont like it).

[Masami]

That's the first totally unfunny thing I've seen you say since I came back.

To add, if you find interest in an dead thread and believe people will contribute to it, you are free to make a new thread of it. I guess the only exception is threads that asked a question and it's dead because it has been answered.

You ruined the fun, Kathryn.
