ORIGINAL: RainydayNE is it better to revive an old thread and then be whined at for bring up "zombie threads," or is it better to start a thread on a subject that can be found via search, but for which the most recent thread is from way back in July (and thereby inciting "use the search function" posts)? A little of both. It seems to go best when you do one of the following: 1. Revive an old thread if you have something relevant and NEW to add to it (not just "I want to talk about this again" or "I agree"), acknowledging that it's a revival. For instance, "I know this thread is a couple of months old, but I don't understand how it works when a submissive person...." 2. Start a new one, acknowledging the old. For instance, "I've done a search and found some info about this subject, but I'm still a bit unclear on some of it. Can someone tell me how it works when a submissive person...." HelpfulCali
