I've noticed in some posts people comment on something that they have a point of view on.... then post again shortly afterwards simply stating 'ohhh... it's an old thread...'

How old constitutes an 'old thread' and why is it such an issue anyway ? Surely if someone has a point of view that they feel like airing then they shouldn't have to create a new thread just because a threads went by it's sell by date... ?
