Weird, I think I'll have to talk to him about that one as it's against the rules. I'll be honest with you though, I think starting up a new gallery is always a better idea if you've been out of action for a while. The whole reasonable amount of time thing was a little silly in my eyes, as if you're not getting replied and you're just bumping all the time, it'll become a trend so as I say, I feel it's a better idea just to start anew. Sometimes that happens to galleries. It's also a lot more neat if I just stick to the rules rather than making exceptions. It keeps the section fluid and fresh and better organized. However, if this happens again, I wouldn't mind if a member came and asked me if they could bum their thread again after a month, I would usually say yes, but as it stands rules were broken and so I have to enforce them. It's not an issue but as I say, opening a new gallery shall do you nor the section any harm :]
