Maybe someone is looking at them and replying? That would bring them to the top, I'd think. I haven't even been a member that long! Which begs the question (for me, at least) how long has this board been around?

From doing a little research on when people joined, it has been around since November 2006.

I thought we were not supposed to bump old threads/topics for no particular reason.
Have the rules changed?

Is making a comment on an old thread always considered bumping? at what age/date are we to not comment on a thread?

If you use the Advanced Search you can sort by the most recent Thread Start Date - Descending Order - then you won't see the old ones

so are most questions and advice.

Picture page has old posts on it.
On the Picture page I was seeing a lot of 2007 quilt picture posts. They are gone, but now there are a lot of 2008 quilt picture posts mixed in with the 2012 picture posts.

My girlfriend told me about this the other day. She said it looks like someone went all the way back to the start and has made a comment on most of them. Whenever anyone comments on a post it brings it up to the front again with that persons comment.
