Ok...let's have a little chat. This whole "you bumped up an old topic, dei!!!!1111" stuff is getting annoying. There is not a rule against posting to any open topic so long as it is a post within the rules. Yes, if the post is nothing but a "Yeah" and is spam, then that person will be dealt for the same violation as if he posted it in a new thread.
However, it's not ever bad to reply to old topics. I mean, some people who are new go back and re-read old posts to catch up on what goes on here at AGN. It's actually a smart thing to do. If they see something that interests them, then they'll go ahead and post.
I mean, in some cases, I wish people would do this. For example, that topic about "How you found out about AGN". I can't cound how many times a thread like that has been made. If people would just go back, find one...and reply there...they could read up on what we said, give their 2 cents, and then prompt newer members to follow suit. That's just one case of being more efficient.
Don't always look at things so negatively. There is always something positive you can draw from.
