First of all, let me say that I have no ill will toward new members. When you stop growing, you start dying, right?
But I have noticed that most of the very-old-thread-bumpers tend to be the new members. And it happens often on their very first post. Maybe they found that thread in a search or something, I don't know.
Perhaps new members could be prevented from bumping old threads until they meet a minimum post count? This would give them time to learn the ropes, and hopefully they will realize that a 7-year old thread most likely need not be bumped....
Just a thought.
