How old does a post have to be to be considered "old"?

Question

Apparently you need less points to post on a more recent question than to post on an old question.

This is a different question. It's asking in terms of the point requirement (as per https://pokemondb.net/pokebase/meta/10194/?show=10195#a10195 ), not from a moderation standpoint.

Fizz I've read that before, that's where I got this question from.

Yes, I know. It is why I’m not hiding this question.

There's not a specific cutoff, it's just up to the Moderator or Editor or Expert in question. We're fairly smart so we tend to be reasonable about these things, generally a month without being touched is fairly old.

Considering that 2-3 years (real time) is considered recent, I believe that “old” would be longer than that time. It is shown, however, that when focusing heavily on one single topic, time seems to feel longer than it is which is why what happened a year ago might feel a little “old”/not recent to somebody.
