It's not. In fact, I believe it's a feature of vBulletin if you choose to enable it.

I don't. It's a good idea in theory, but painfully annoying in practice. Besides, there's no rule against adding to an existing discussion, regardless of how old it is.

The 90/10 rule usually applies.
90% of the time, it's some noob with nothing better to contribute than "yeah, me too, plzsndmetehcode" or other barely literate lameness.

the only thing painfully annoying, is reading a page of discussion, writing a reply, and then realizing its some 3-year-old thread from an OP who is long-gone, that was reactivated by some stupid noob.
because most every other legitimate forum on the internets has an "expiration" feature, i'm not in the habit of inspecting "post dates" of every thread.
theres nothing that needs to be added to some year-old thread that's of any importance.
