I'm fairly new here and love the site. I love talking to people who have the same interests.
However, while searching for discussions, I find things I want to comment on and talk about. But the last response is like seven, 10 months ago. Is it OK if I still write on these or should I just start a new topic?
So far, I have been just commenting on topics that are old, but I am not sure what the norm has been.

I respond to them all the time. You do get paid for responding discussions, but not starting them or responding within your own discussions.
Go right on and respond to old topics. I do it all the time!

Is it worth my time though? Let's say I respond on these threads, are people going to write back?
I only ask because these are topics I'm genuinely interested in talking about. But I don't want to waste my time, writing in topics no one is interested in.

whatever, you can do anything you want to do, either starting a new topic, or responding old ones. there are so many people like you interesting in the old topic. it's can not to be continue, when where is no start.

I have responded to some older articles. I think it's okay. They are still up, after all and not locked or anything, right?
Plus, it might be something interesting and get the ball rolling again for that topic and earn the person who started it a little extra money even. I don't see anything wrong with that! :)
