On another forum I go to, there's a rule that for a bump of a topic more than 3 months old, you need to PM a moderator and get permission.

some videogames i know of: - 8-bits: gameboy (and color)
the first gameboy was 4-bit :)
it used an 8 bit processor, but 4 bits to represent each 'color' (16 shades of green)

3 year bump? These are getting ridiculous.
IMO, topics should be locked and archived after 6 months without replies.

No they shouldn't. Creating new topics for questions relevant to the existing ones is worse than just using the existing ones. However, it would be cool if phpBB notified the poster additionally in case the last message was posted more than half a year ago.

bits of a processor = the size of what it considers to be one word (small pack of bits, usually the largest unit of storage it can perform a single operation with, without needing to chop things up) and the metric system sucks ass for measuring storage space, keep to them powers of 2 yo

Even then it's not completely unambiguous. For example the Sinclair Spectrum was considered an "8-bit computer" even though it had 16-bit registers (and you could execute 16-bit operations, such as additions and substractions, with single opcodes).
