Maybe. But case plays disappear, new ones appear, NFHS tinkers. Maybe not major changes over time, but current takes on issues are always positive.

If "someone" seeks further clarification on a point that wasn't resolved during the initial discussion, or has information that clarifies / changes a previous answer (assuming the "corrections" hasn't also been discussed), then sure -- open it up.

But just posting the equivalent of "I agree" is a waste of everyone's time -- and not everyone notices that it's a zombie thread so that generates more of the same answers.

This is not a big deal at all on other, similar sites. I know of a site that people bring up 10-year-old threads at times to either highlight something or make a point. I also do not get why this bothers everyone. The only issue I have is when you do not realize that some things might have changed, but not sure why it is always a big deal.

Peace

Well, I did say to myself, "OMFG! Not again.", so that's close.
