No written rules really, just use common sense. Good thing of you to search, but the last post in those threads is literally nine (and six, respectively) years old. Personally I don't think it's worth resurrecting a thread if it's been dead for more than a few months - and years? ;)

If a post (or posts) in the original thread has/have information pertinent to your new post, I say go for it. If it's merely the same topic and the original thread is a few years old, start a new one.
