Yes, I don't even disagree with the point he is trying to make, just with the method -- if a single person digs into the archives to necro every thread from the past two years about a single topic back to the front page, that is to forum posting what a protestor shouting slogans through a megaphone is to someone raising a point.
If you tried to raise an issue (again) and feel that you are not being heard, this is one of the things you'd do to escalate -- it shouldn't be the FIRST thing you do.
