That's what necroing IS, i'm asking what the rules are regarding necroing. For example, punishments, amount of warnings, the forums and threads that necroing are considered to fall under, etc.
Like i'm pretty sure anything under the miscellaneous category can't be necro'd, while things like dev logs and suggestions/ideas can be necro'd, but i'm not 100% sure because it's not stated, which leaves me confused :<
I guess that falls under: "Use common sense!", but maybe it really isn't common sense for most. Necro-ing is okay if you have something NEW and ON-topic to say that is only relevant to that thread. Nobody cares about Miscellaneous, so most things there can be allowed.
I did respond to one necro with "pls no necro" and was told by @kaizokuroof to just report such things. Before then I didn't even know you were ALLOWED to report necro posts so, I think necroing should be added to the list of rules so people get a better understanding about it. It's not really common sense as most people who first get on kag forums probably don't even know what necroing means
Hello. These rules apply to most internet forums. I personally don't think necro posts are bad, but I guess it also depends on topic, discussion quality, etc, etc. Pretty much what Para said though. Honestly it's no big deal, I wouldn't worry about it too much.
Pretty much, resurrecting stuff for no constructive reason is frowned upon. I tend to prefer to lock and message the perp and sweet talk them until they fall in love with me, but it never works, we never reach that perfect bond, just mutual understanding.
If it's been dead for years, leave it and start afresh, unless specific sub-forum rules say otherwise. Common sense is best, i guess.
