Necro-posting

(1/1)

NotABronie:
it has come to my attention that posting on topics that haven't been posted on for weeks or months and it seems looked down upon. may i ask what is so bad about it, or was there like an edict that said: no necro-posting

Xeadin:
Bringing back topics that had served their purpose or that have become greatly inactive can be a little bothersome. If you really want to bring back an inactive topic, it needs to have a good reason for being brought back to the front page. Otherwise, it can be used as a way to increase post count by posting needless content in an inactive thread.

Again, you may bring inactive topics back, but do so with good reason.

NotABronie:
Okay thanks for the help session  :)

Spyow:
Shouldn't it be the mods responsibility to lock these posts?

If we had the man-power to lock nearly 10,000+ inactive threads, we would.
