<div class="IPBDescription">How old is too old</div> Quick question.
How long befor a thread is buried. I have seen people respond to threads that are a couple of months old, while that one was obviously dead, where is the line approximately (spelling?).

Yes i did a search, no i didnt find any thing
Braces for flames while peaking out for usefull responses.

    when you judge it as too old. It's.. just a "feeling"

    You'd might dig up something a week old, while some topics a day old would seem uninteresting.

    Just judge it yourself.

    2 Weeks is usually dead and buried in this forum. If you have a decent sized post to add, resurrection is acceptable within a month or so. If you respond with "w00t" then that really isnt necessary.

    As always, try looking for a more recent post before bringing up a dead topic.

    Anything over 2 months should be left well enough alone unless there is an extremely good reason/post to bring it back.

    After 3 months, start a new topic rather then raising the dead.

    1 Year is completely out of the question.

    Kind of like the funny picture posts that go on forever.

    It's not so much as how <i>old</i> it is, it's your post bumping it. Did you add any feedback? Did you just go, "yeah that's cool!" and dredge up this old topic?

    I dont know....but if your going to use the word "necromancy", make sure its for something worthwhile.

    I actually liked the use of "Necromancy" <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Not like it's some holy word that's used for only subjects that fit it's extremely tough requirements.
