The problem is too many brainless threads like this and I'm sure because of this I've noticed a lack of participation with some of the older more experienced members as well and it's a damn shame.
 
Even as older people drop off, newer people come on and wish to discuss topics that are old hat to others.  Let's let them have their fun, just like we did.

PossiblyWink

But being serious, I'm glad it gets bumped that's kind of why I did it, so some admin could possibly see it and start doing something about terrible threads like this.
 
I've seen lots of threads stickied to the top of sections so one would think if that is what they wanted done with common topics, that is what they would do. But they don't, so, as others have mentioned, they probably want newcomers to feel welcome to revisit these topics.
