Nocrobumping is one of the least warnable reports we get. I don’t see a lot of old posts getting brought back. Usually it is a newer member, who stumbles across a post and doesn’t see how old it is and makes a comment. And i agree with you…the original poster is often long gone.I noticed there seems to be two universal constants when it comes to necroposting a thread.
The first is the majority of the time the OP of the thread in question has either been banned or hasn't posted in forever, sometimes not since the thread was created. This is especially amusing when the resurrector is commenting to them directly, giving them a compliment or asking a follow-up question. Umm, wakey, wakey, but I don't think they are going to see your comment, let alone respond back .
The second seems to be that the person who necrobumps the old ass thread, usually adds nothing new or enlightening to the conversation to even make such a resurrection minimally worthwhile. So not only do you not check the last date of posting but think that anyone cares to read your "me too" one sentence grand opus.
While it's all good fun to make light of the dunderheads, I really which the practice could be stopped or at least better enforced.

I started this thread long before I was a mod. It was made for fun and, in no way, do I condone necrobumping.
I know the purpose of this thread is not to condone it and your intentions are well intentioned in making light of the idgits, but that of course doesn't make it anymore headshakingly frustrating.Nocrobumping is one of the least warnable reports we get.
