At what point do y'all decide not to comment on a thread? Is 1 week+ too ’old’?

As a long time former lurker I'm trying to go based on active conversation, others saying what I had to say, and if it's something I'm interested in devoting time to. I'd say that is my criteria and not really how old the post is. The content.

I prefer old school forums with thread bumping, it saves a whole lot of repeats, it might not scale as well or work for everything, but where it works it's much better than the Reddit formula (which was also used on some forms of old school forums, I know).

I like your username, very clever. Glad to have you here with us. I'd say just comment anywhere and everywhere, activity is the name of the game at this early stage
