Whoops! I responded to a 3 month old discussion. Is this wrong?

That's the third time it happend that I posted to a discussion without taking notice that it had been discontinued for a while. Although no best response had been choosen, I feel a little bit silly to post where probably nobody will put his nose again. Did this happen to you, is it against the rules, or what do you think about? :)

There is nothing wrong with this! Some of us go into "discussions my friends started" and then go to the back of the list to the older ones or ones with not very many responses and get the discussion going again by responding to one of them. I sometimes notice a discussion of mine popping up again that I had forgotten about or that I started a long time ago. That just gives everyone another chance at it in case they missed it the first time around!

I like that, because it give a sort of second opportunities. Thanks!

It's not agaianst any guidelines. I just had someone bring up a discussion of mine that I started 5 months ago by responding to it. Doesn't matter to me. It's fun to see some really old discussions actually. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

Thanks. Yes, it is like reading a newspaper 6 month later. Happy postings, too!

I don't think its a big deal. I mean the discussions are still there and the option to respond is still available. So there's nothing stopping anyone from responding to older discussions.

Don't feel silly at all. I bet the original poster of that discussion is thrilled to have it come to life again! I know I love when it happens to my discussions. It gives new people a chance to see the discussion and respond.

I've done that before, and I don't think it matters. I've noticed that some of my interests have very few discussions, and some of them are very old. I posted to a few of them just to see if I'd get a response.
