How do i know if a string/forum is dead? Is it just when it is a month old, or what?

When no one hasn't replied to it in ages, or usually when it's off the front page of the forum.

So basically I would not be allowed to revive it without some angry people?

Well, it depends on what kind of post it is, if it was a forgotten flame war, you're not going to expect welcoming arms, or let's say when a really good post has been made or was forgotten, while it has to be really really good, people will be ok with it.

In general, it's not a very good idea to revive posts that are two weeks old in any case. Usually, the good stuff people like always ends up on the front pages.

You can basically revive threads about a mod (updates, screenies and stuff) whenever you want, no matter how old the thread is.

Old threads like "The TWHL FAQ" are definitatly worth reviving...that one was a real lively thread :
