Is it allowed to necro / bump threads?

Hi, I only come by here very rarely, so I don't know much about how this site operates.

Once every few months or so I get inspired to look up questions I have about TMNT, and in my experience this place is by far the best place to find that. Usually people have already created a thread, asked these questions and gotten their answers.

Occasionally I'd also like to write something, but then I realize these threads may be several years old, and I don't know if I would just get people mad at me for writing in them by then?

So I thought I should just make sure, is it allowed for me to write in older threads?
Also I wanted to see if this question was already asked, but this Questions/Comments/Suggestions forum has only 10 threads displaying for me, of which five are stickied despite I know I made a thread here 10 years ago.

TLR is necroing of old threads allowed?

It's better than making new threads about exactly the same thing, IMO.

It really depends on the thread, but for the most part Andrew's right.

I've never understood why some people get mad about it, but that's mostly been other sites, not here.

edit: Some here are more likely to point out that a thread already exists rather than get mad about an old thread coming back to life.
