Please use search engine before create a thread. You should not create new thread if there a thread who have discussed it before.
I don't know man, but this doesn't sound right to me.
If we do exactly what you say, then there is no way this topic will be reintroduced to newcomers and people. It's about recalling things.
But I think the right way to do this is to include the old thread as a reference to the new thread.
