It's even better on forums that aren't policed as well.. Then the thread fizzles out and lies dormant for a couple years, until:

1 newbie says "Hey, my light bulb stopped working too, do you think I should try changing it?"

5 people flame the newbie for resurrecting an old thread.

3 people argue that continuing a preexisting thread is better than starting a new thread to say the same thing.

... everyone else starts flaming various 2-year-old posts and the whole mess repeats itself.
