Bumping old threads

If I would bump an old thread like someone did with dittoheads “Do you think copying music to give away free, is okay?” it will get locked. But if I say I bumped it because I thought it were a burning question it will still get locked. If I have an old project I want to revise people tell me to start a new thread linking to the old one. But my question is: Why do you lock old, bumped threads?

well i locked it.
thread was so old, i got the feeling that some of the information there could even be not accurate anymore, also in 4 years opinions might change… and some of those people might not be following the forum anymore…

so just start a new thread about what you were saying and you get fresh opinions too.

if you have old project with news, i don’t see any problem of continuing the thread…
