It's okay in these cases since you're bringing something new to the table, making something more than the thread did. For example: if you saw a really old mappack and decided to update it to the latest version of Mari0, or fixed some bugs in an old mod, you have all the rights to post in that thread regardless of how old it is. There are some cases in which a "bump" is acceptable. Bumping is like "raising the dead from their tombs", but it's not the end of the world (yet). When you post in a two-years old mappack thread just to say it's "nice", you're causing an issue to the forums, as more relevant, active threads get mixed with dead, unimportant ones. If that's the case, as in most threads, then it's better off if you leave it. That means it didn't have enough content to keep a discussion going. If it exceeds 2 or 3 months, it's usually a bad idea to post, since these threads are considered "dead". Whenever you see a thread where you want to post, make sure you check the date in which the last post was made. Since the latter has been covered already, let's see what the former is about. Bumping is also the act of posting twice in the same post when there's a significant interval between your posts (as stated earlier).
