Oh haha your funny  :P But seriously two points:
1. What's wrong with reviving old threads?
2. And I'm sorry but I can't stand people who understand everything and felt I had to say something :P

For new users/lurkers:

AN has many threads. Sometimes you get lost in all the reading. While you're digging through all the boards of miscellaneous discussions, you're going to run into some thread on page 15 that you feel you would like to reply to.

Please don't, that thread has been sleeping, people haven't bothered to look at it for a while now. Unless you have a good reason (like new materials that will reignite the discussion), please don't wake it up. (This act is called necromancy)

Look for the red text just above the post dialogue. If there is a warning telling you the post is more than XX days old, please don't revive it unless you have a good reason. Otherwise, we encourage you to start a new topic.

Cheers,
Mao

PS. The original post was written 4 years ago. Read below for the original immature version.

NEW USERS: Forum Necromancy. (Revival of Dead Threads) MUST READ

My main reason. But yeah, I have a mate that has the condition where he can perform well but I let that pass as most likely the temporal lobe in his brain has increased due to him constantly reviving guitar which leads to stronger memory. The point of the fact though there usually is a reason to why these people perform well and in most cases that is study. Most common scenario where someone tells you that havn't studied and got close to full marks is that probably did study. :P
‎"We divert our attention from disease and death as much as we can; and the slaughter-houses and indecencies without end on which our life is founded are huddled out of sight and never mentioned, so that the world we recognize officially in literature and in society is a poetic fiction far handsomer and cleaner and better than the world that really is."
- William James.
