If it provides me information I need… I’ll thank the poster.
I’ve commented a thank you a literal decade after the helpful comment was made.
When I was on reddit… If the thread was archived, I’d copy the link and send the person a message saying thanks. If it was very helpful.
I don’t have a problem with it obviously. Back in the day being a thread necromancer was frowned upon. Now, it doesn’t bump the thread to the top of the forum, so who cares

I never even saw the problem back then. If new info made the thread relevant again (even if it was just that someone new had something to say), it was fine with me to see a thread pop back up to the top.

Agreed. But you know how some power tripping folk can be. :/
Reminds me of the flame wars in newsgroups about whether top-posting or bottom-posting (quote after or before reply) was holier.
Obligatory
