Just curious.

Making a meaningful comment in an older thread is Not against the rules
 
We want the community members to add to the conversation.  If a thread has not had any comments for several months best to let it be; unless you can actually offer some information that would help the OP and add to the community at large.
 
If your not sure, and the closest thread has been dormant -- probably best to just start a new thread and reference the older thread if it has material information.
 
 
However, using the word "Bump" or any derivative of that word is Against the rules
 
The Forum Rules:  EVGA Forums Terms of Use
Posting Guidelines
(excerpt: bold added for clarity)
 
When making a post, please use common courtesy.  Do not post in all Caps, as this is "Shouting," and is considered rude.  Moreover, do not hijack a member's thread by creating an off-topic post by asking for help with your own issue in another's thread, even if you have a similar issue.  Create your own thread and topic for your issue, and you will receive help from the EVGA Community.  Likewise, once you've created your thread, do not "Bump" your thread by creating successive posts to keep it at the top of the post list.  Your thread will be answered in due time, and continually bumping your thread will earn a warning.  Furthermore, do not make off-topic posts, such as “in before lock,” or other comments suggesting a thread or member requires moderation (except as defined in the EVGA Marketplace rules for the Marketplace section).  Such off-topic posts serve only to derail a topic.  If you feel such a post/thread requires moderation, please PM/email a moderator or report the post without communicating this in the thread.
 
 
Marketplace Rules: EVGA Marketplace Terms of Use [Amended 10/24/2014 Please Read]
 Prohibited Items
(excerpt)
Bumping - Bumping is explicitly prohibited in the EVGA TOS.  This means any use of the word "bump" or uninformative posts designed to consistently keep a thread near the top of the Marketplace.  Bumping another person's [FS] thread is also prohibited.  A post to update the price is not considered a bump, so long as these updates are not abused.

Bumping is not allowed.  New threads or old threads; makes no difference in that regard.

LOL, you just bumped with a +1. 

 Doesn't count since this is to explain about bumping to people who can't take the time to read the TOS.    

Where's Moose's old thread with the handyman toy tools?  Now thats an old thread worth bumping, or course its more fun when Moose is here and can defend his self...
