View Full Version : What is it with you people and old threads??? kendogg 07-17-2007, 11:42 PM Stop digging up 2+ year old threads, jesus. Do any of you guys doing this even remotely THINK about looking at the dates on the posts? :shifty ///M3///M5 07-17-2007, 11:53 PM Werd and the last two I have seen have been from Micah and Jason at BSW... :shifty atl540i 07-17-2007, 11:54 PM :rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl - never know - we must learn from history... tpattison 07-18-2007, 12:15 AM Damn noobs can't f*cking read. The BSW thread was resurrected by some twit from TN who just joined this month. At least he probably found the thread using the search button. cliffhanger407 07-18-2007, 12:15 AM I honestly don't see how it happens. Maybe when it's already on the front page, replies can be excused ;), but when I'm doing a search, I always check the date, and when I notice I'm 800 pages into the subforum, I generally don't bump it. M3Alpine99 07-18-2007, 12:45 AM I never read the date of a thread that is at the top. And I know you rarely do either ken. If it is bumped to the top you don't check the first post for the date? Bullshit. jmejiaa 07-18-2007, 12:52 AM Whats the problem? Maybe someone had the same problem as a 2 year old thread and the OP never posted back. By bumping it maybe someone can see it and respond with the solution to that problem. M3Alpine99 07-18-2007, 12:57 AM Whats the problem? Maybe someone had the same problem as a 2 year old thread and the OP never posted back. By bumping it maybe someone can see it and respond with the solution to that problem. who are you?

If it is bumped to the top you don't check the first post for the date? Bullshit. If it's already been bumped by some other idiot who bumped it to the top, then perhaps I will post without realizing it's old as hell. I'm saying, dipshit, DON'T REPLY TO THREADS WHERE THE LAST FUCKING POST WAS YEARS AGO!!!!! Is this really THAT hard of a concept to understand? Whats the problem? Maybe someone had the same problem as a 2 year old thread and the OP never posted back. By bumping it maybe someone can see it and respond with the solution to that problem. who are you? Yeah, seriously, who the hell are you mang? tpattison 07-18-2007, 06:57 AM If it's already been bumped by some other idiot who bumped it to the top, then perhaps I will post without realizing it's old as hell. I'm saying, dipshit, DON'T REPLY TO THREADS WHERE THE LAST FUCKING POST WAS YEARS AGO!!!!! Is this really THAT hard of a concept to understand? Yeah, seriously, who the hell are you mang? +1 and yeah who the hell are you and why are you in here? :confused Oh and IBTL! :buttrock Timsmith 07-18-2007, 07:21 AM Does doing this start a count down to server distruction or something? I don't understand what the big deal is. If someone bumps a thread that is of interest to them and not to you, don't read it and/or bump it. It's that simple. If someone started a NEW thread about the same topic, people would be bit**ing that they didn't do a search. delgadoduvidoso 07-18-2007, 07:52 AM http://www.student.gsu.edu/~jhannay1/internet.jpg JeffBurnett 07-18-2007, 08:04 AM give us noobs a break!!! tpattison 07-18-2007, 08:07 AM give us noobs a break!!! No zeit00 07-18-2007, 08:19 AM This has nothing to do with bumping an old problem. That would be a good excuse in the technical forum. Or maybe I could see someone bumping an old tint thread and asking "how has your tint held up in the past two years" But this was about test fitting audio into cars from two years ago. I am really wondering what his search terms were to find that thread. kendogg 07-18-2007, 08:22 AM This has nothing to do with bumping an old problem.

I am really wondering what his search terms were to find that thread. It was actually 2 threads, that one, and one started by Leif in like, 2004, that kinda set me off. Both threads pertaining to nothing in 2007. Leif now lives in CA anyways. M Junkie 07-18-2007, 08:43 AM Stop digging up 2+ year old threads, jesus. Do any of you guys doing this even remotely THINK about looking at the dates on the posts? :shifty only one thing worse than that, and thats posting a thread about old threads and their new posters. If it's already been bumped by some other idiot who bumped it to the top, then perhaps I will post without realizing it's old as hell. so youre saying that you can make the same mistake as the old thread bumper......... you kinda just defeated your own argument. zeit00 07-18-2007, 08:54 AM only one thing worse than that, and thats posting a thread about old threads and their new posters. so youre saying that you can make the same mistake as the old thread bumper......... you kinda just defeated your own argument. Actually if you look at the last post date.. That would be today, not 2 years old. I even looked at this thread and thought "wow, when did I miss this thread" Boozie D. Clown 07-18-2007, 08:57 AM The thread started by Leif was actually bumped from the dead twice. Does that mean we should be twice as angry? JeffBurnett 07-18-2007, 08:57 AM No luftan?!

I don't think I defeated my own argument at all. I've done it a couple of times, posted in a thread that somebody bumped to the top from sometimes 5+ years ago. It happens. The person who bumped it to the top should be the one asked why. Say, for instance, Kelly Childress's post about selling E30 interior parts from years ago, and somebody asking if he had seats for sale as if the post was recent :eyecrazy Actually if you look at the last post date.. That would be today, not 2 years old. I even looked at this thread and thought "wow, when did I miss this thread" Exactly. The thread started by Leif was actually bumped from the dead twice. Does that mean we should be twice as angry? Dam right :wavey :ponder Jesus doesn't bump threads, he resurrects them! :angel :D Hahahahahahaha. tpattison 07-18-2007, 09:41 AM luftan?!

Did you learn your Farsi out in Monterrey by chance? No, I actually learned it from some local translator in Bagram... Im not sure if the stuff I know actually means what I think it does. CDM5GO 07-18-2007, 10:41 AM No, I actually learned it from some local translator in Bagram... Im not sure if the stuff I know actually means what I think it does. For all you know you could have been asking for a cheeseburger. tpattison 07-18-2007, 10:43 AM No, I actually learned it from some local translator in Bagram... Im not sure if the stuff I know actually means what I think it does. :rofl: That's a good bet, they probably told you it meant one thing when it actually meant another. We taught a few of the locals over there sayings like "Don't make me open up a can on you" and "This ain't my first rodeo asshole". :rofl Ahhhh, Good Times!! :buttrock GeorgeM3SMG 07-18-2007, 10:52 AM Making an Outlook reminder to bump this thread next summer ... atlantaM3 07-18-2007, 11:11 AM Does doing this start a count down to server distruction or something?

That's what the people really want to know... kendogg 07-18-2007, 11:43 AM I'm surprised no one has thought to ask the question: What is it with kendogg and NEW threads??? That's what the people really want to know... I like new threads :) They can be full of relevant, or irrelevant information. However, they are usually fairly time-correct, whereas old threads are not. tpattison 07-18-2007, 11:43 AM I'm surprised no one has thought to ask the question: What is it with kendogg and NEW threads???

M3Bill 07-18-2007, 12:01 PM why does everything get locked? I really don't understand it. I am suppose to lock all threads that venture too far off topic. I think I have been very lenient in that regard. I let most threads go until they have run their course. I am also suppose to tow or lock all threads that have no bearing on Georgia and/or BMW's...

Contain bad information or irrelevant information. And it has been stated before. If you make a new post about something that has been answered you get yelled at. The thread from Jason was 100% irrelevant. The thread from Kelly was 100% irrelevant. Both due to age and nothing more. Get a grip dude. Look at the damn post, and actually THINK before you bump an old post. Why are some of you guys really this dense? I guess I need to spell it out. Not ALL old threads are worthless. Lets go back to the E36 section years ago when people though removing VANOS was a good thing, or removing intake baffles, etc. We now know this is WRONG, and bumping these old-ass threads brings up irrelevant, old, BAD information. All I'm saying is read and actually think before bumping an ancient thread. Not all old posts are correct, or even relevant, to information available today.
