I thought old threads could not be bumped.

I thought a thread older than 1 year could not be bumped.
Has that changed?


Look at page 6 of the linked thread.
The post by Darthvoy is dated 06/15/2007.
The next post, by XBoxLPU, is dated 08/11/2008.
That is more than a year. How could XBoxLPU make a post in that old thread?

AFAIK it's archived posts that cannot be bumped. I don't believe archiving has taken place since March of 2007.

You can set thread to not archive. I don't see why that one would have been set as such though.
I used to set threads in FI that answered common questions that way.

Who can? A mod, or anyone?
How?

Mods can do it. Or at least they used to be able to do it.

The thread linked in the OP is set to archive itselF like normal. Why iT did not archive, I do not know.
