I have no problem with necro threads, especially for topics that could still remain relevant today. There have been times when I've stumbled across a more general discussion that is anywhere from a few months to a year or two old, and wanted to contribute. However, not being sure what was considered taboo in such instances, I've abstained.

I agree. Even though it can be a little annoying at times when questions asked the day before are asked again by someone new the next day, it can be hard to find *exactly* what you're looking for in the search. I usually end up going Advanced and only search through titles, because a general search pulls up several pages of threads where the search term has been mentioned once in the whole thread, and often in a very vague manner or in passing.

Then again, I could just be not all that bright.
