Old threads and the Birthday Forum

So, what's the preferred practice for all these old threads that are popping up in the Birthday Forum? Should we make a new thread and link back to the old one, or just post to the original ones, or what?

Hiya,

Policy is that resurrection is allowed in the Birthday forum.

However, I don't think that some people even realize that they're doing it, but rather are posting to the old threads in the mistaken belief that a bunch of people (who posted to it two years ago) are reading their replies.

No big deal, though. No cure for being human. (Narrows eyes, speculates ...)

Best,
Ron
