I was wandering, I use the search engine merely for searching some discussion so that I prevent a multiple discussion to post and the admin wont delete my post for multiple discussion posting. But what if the old discussion can be the answer to our queries, can we make it alive by responding on it lets say 1 to 3 years ago.

It is very seldom that a topic will not be discussed some time in the future. Most of the time, we ran out of topics to discuss that is why it is being repeated. Others just find a new how of representing a topic in a different way so as to make it look like a new topic.

I observed it too some users here are recycling only what they post. I actually want to prevent this to happen to me so I need to find out on how we will be able to find a similar discussion before we post it!

You can respond to any discussion, even if it is five years old. You do make it alive again and bring it to the top of the lists in recent discussions if you comment or respond on it. I have had four year old discussions brought back up and several have posted on them.

I think we have a duty to respond in old threads to make them live again, but if it's very old and no longer meet our needs then we will open a new one !

Did this happen to you, searching some old discussion that lead to your concerns and you find it a little bit outdated!
