Given the rather enthusiastic response rate, I'd say this is more a personal preference.

--- Quote from: Misconception on 14 Jan 2008, 13:20 ---Pretty much, yeah. As a general rule you are go to post in any thread that has had replies in the last week or so, I would say. Anything significantly older and you better have something damn good to add.

If the house has other suggestions for how to integrate newer members, and ensure they're not discriminated against by virtue of the facts (1) they weren't here when the thread was launched first time around and (2) senior members feel they "have nothing new to add", I'm all ears. Personally, if someone felt that my opinion on a subject doesn't add anything new, I wouldn't be overally impressed....
Then again, in two years time, I'll probably be asking why people are necroposting....
a pack of wolves:
Yes, that's just a personal preference. I'm not a fan of listing things much.
As for being integrated, you could post in a thread on the first couple of pages or find an older thread where you can provide some new information such as a thread about a particular band who you know has done a new release you'd like to discuss, or a genre of music talked about where there are some artists you think were overlooked. Or you could start a thread about an artist or genre you know about and want to bring up or are interested in and would like to see if anybody here can give you some more information on. Maybe there's a more general observation about music you've made and you want to share, I notice the thread about music at work was started by somebody pretty new here and that's the kind of thing I mean.
That's all just me and my preference though, I'm hardly what you'd call a 'senior member' or anything like that and when I mentioned the 'house style' it was all based purely on what's been posted in threads describing the kind of posting preferred here stickied around the place.

you could also always just post a new version of a thread instead of bumping from 2006
just sayin

That's percisely what I did almost a year ago.
