Old Threads

I don’t get this. I’ll click on a topic. I scroll down, and see all these people that don’t post anymore, and I’m like…“wait a second…”.

I look over on the date, and invariably its some 5 year old thread that someone dug up.

I have a question. What do you people do? Type in topics in search - relook them up, and then reply to them?

And if so. Why?

Re: Old Threads

I did that once myself in the C&A forum, because there was a current event related to a thread that I had opened several months earlier, so instead of opening a new thread, I revived the old one.

But most of the times I see really pointless threads beeing revived for no reason.

Re: Old Threads

Yes. Many times people while reading old threads probably get so lost in them that they forget its years old and end up replying, even in smiley format, to a two and a half year old post. I have been one of those people too but only on one occasion :D

Re: Old Threads

makes a note to himself: Revive this lame thread started by PCG in 2011.

Re: Old Threads

kaleem, while you're at it, don't forget to update us on your chevy surbabn in 2011. some curious minds would really like to know.

Re: Old Threads

Roman... if I still own it... I will let you know.

Re: Old Threads

kaleem, from the uncanny obsession you’ve with american cars I doubt you’ll ever get rid of that baby. :halo:

Re: Old Threads

Roman, I replace my (one I drive) car every three years... I have done that for the last six years. Suburban is the family vehicle hence will be kept for sometime...however, as soon as the wife wants a new car ...it will be gone.

Re: Old Threads

err…kaleem, my previous post wasn’t exactly a request for history of your family car consumption. no wonder you don’t see things wrong with american cars if you keep them only for 3 years.

it’s like marrying a girl when she’s only 18 and marrying again once she’s 25. you’ve already skimmed off the good years. :rolleyes:

Re: Old Threads

People used to tell me that Roman is just another average Joe Blow.
I have always denied it.
I tried to convert them by saying, “No, you just don’t see the other side of him.”

Alas…with this mediocre comment comparing cars to wives…he has proven the masses to be correct.

Roman…you are now… Joe Blow.

Re: Old Threads

Oh wow…there’s like a whole other side to this Joe Blow and not seeing the other side of him theory…

I made a funny.:cb:

Re: Old Threads

err, the point is that I have had a chevy Suburban for almost six years without a problme… I have had a Chevy Silverado from 1994-1999 without a problem. During the same time my wife was driving a Mazda…so of course I know about both american and japanese cars…not like someone who kept it for 3 months… and rendered a verdict of their uselessness.

Re: Old Threads

Kaleem.

Let’s stick to cars here and not discuss Roman and uselessness.
Please keep it civil. No personal attacks.

:wink:

Re: Old Threads

kaleem, I don’t know what it is about american cars that hit a nerve or something..again we’re not asking for family history of car purchases…did you see me drumming my having owned three civics, all for years of ownership, a chrysler omni for three months, and next big plans of lexus suv? no you don’t. so please..:rolleyes:

Re: Old Threads

ok, I get it dude. You win ... Japanese cars trump american cars.. :)

Re: Old Threads

no kaleem, I'm afraid that won't cut it. you've to make a mujasma of the sort of american cars and put on mantle and bow reverently every day and then we can call it livable.

Re: Old Threads

so as PCG was asking, why do people dig up old threads?

Re: Old Threads

femme 'cause some people get nostalgic. :bummer:
