Does thread necromancy exist on Fluther?

If you have something new to add, go for it.

That’s one of my favorite things: getting new ideas from very old topics. It’s like the UPS man coming and delivering a package of knowledge.

I try to update mine… especially if I find out answers to something I asked (even if it’s much, much later) since I figure anyone Following might still have an interest.

The whole Activity You’re Following (# New) aspect of Fluther is cool like that.

Yes, when you answer an old question, the person who asked the question will be alerted (via email or the “activity you’re following” link) to new activity…so will anyone else who has answered it, or who clicked on “follow this question.” so, yes, go ahead and post! it will be especially helpful if the question is still unanswered. I asked a question almost two years ago about curing my own olives and someone answered it a year later with a fabulous answer that was really really helpful.

When you got something new to add, absolutely feel free to do so! The only thing that annoys me is when my Questions for You is filled up with 1 new response to old questions with answers that say absoutely nothing (if they do, you’d know, so definitely don’t hesitate).
