To put it simply, necroposting, also known as necroing, is posting on a thread that has been dead for many months or even years, “reviving” it from the grave. While not technically against the rules, necroposting is widely frowned upon, and repeated necroposting can get you warned for spamming. Some examples of necroposting are;
- Asking someone if there project is going to update again after it’s been inactive for a substantial amount of time. IE. “Is this active?” “Are you still working on this?” etc.
- Giving suggestions to a project that has been inactive for a substantial amount of time IE. “You should add more arthropods” “Why is this animal scaly?” etc.
- Posts with little substance on a thread that has been inactive for a substantial amount of time. IE. “This” “I agree” “I like this” etc.
But necroposting, at least on this forum, is a bit more complicated than reviving long dead threads, there are a few exceptions to the rule where bumping up a long-dead thread is considered acceptable.
- If it is a project you made and you have new information to add. It doesn't matter if you last worked on the project in 2008, if you made it and you want to add to it, go for it!
- If, in a science thread, either new information has been discovered or you find some information relevant to the thread that had not been previously discussed.
- If, in a discussion thread, you have quality and relevant information to add
These are the biggest examples, but there may be other instances where it’s okay to post on an old thread. If you are unsure whether or not what you want to post would be considered necroing, feel free to ask in the shoutbox on the bottom of the forum before you post. You can also pm me, and I will do my best to provide a quick response. |
I hope this helps clarify what necroing is and how to avoid it. If you still have questions on the subject, you are welcome to post them in this thread!

I think an exception should also be made for slow-updating projects that the creator has made clear is not dead (although even in that case, needling constantly for an update is still really annoying and rude).

I feel that's an awkward case since as you say those kinds of posts are often unwanted and annoying. Even in other cases, it's awkward to bump a thread after a few weeks just to note your appreciation, even when it's not necessarily a necro. There's certainly times that would be okay but as a rule should probably be a avoided anyway.

Me  Forum user Uncanny Gemstar drew what is supposed to be a me. Thanks! Spoiler: click to toggle As they walk in, they're greeted by a small, poorly kept pathway leading to a poorly constructed Japanese-style gate. Behind this, a small field made up of corn, rice, wheat, potatoes, among other plants is contrasted by large piles of books, as well as a few rather out of place looking laptops. Off in the corner, a small woman, with long, striped, and strikingly colorful socks, no shoes, unremarkable denim shorts, a large, fancy black coat, arm warmers, glasses, a tuque, and somewhat unkempt, mid-length blue-and-pink-streaked red hair, is rummaging through a trash bin, located behind a sign saying "employees only". She continues this for a while (walking behind a wall to change her outfit now and then), until one of her visitors coughs. Startled, she looks up, apologizes, and grabs a handful of textbooks and novels before daintily running off to join them. What, you want me to tell you what these mean?

But Souls are delicious. They're like bacon - they taste good on anything. But if you eat them, you completely remove them from existence! They can't move on or... or be reincarnated! Huh. I never really gave it much thought. Besides, what do you mean by reincarnation anyway? You know, being reborn as someone or something else. Which means different body, different memories, different experiences, yes? So isn't being reborn as "something else" the same as being "removed from existence"? I... I... eating souls isn't right! That depends on your definition of "right". All living things survive by eating other living things. So what? You're a god. You should be above all that! Gods are above living things, which doesn't necessarily mean we care about them.

“You should add more arthropods” That's a reference to me, isn't it?
Anyway, I heard that reviving a dead forum game is allowed.

Projects Punga: A terraformed world with no vertebrates Last one crawling: The last arthropod
ARTH-6810: A world without vertebrates (It's ded, but you can still read I guess)
Potential ideas- Swamp world: A world covered in lakes, with the largest being caspian sized. Nematozoic: After a mass extinction of ultimate proportions, a single species of nematode is the only surviving animal. Tri-devonian: A devonian like ecosystem with holocene species on three different continents.
Quotes "Arthropod respiratory systems aren't really "inefficient", they're just better suited to their body size. It would be quite inefficient for a tiny creature that can easily get all the oxygen it needs through passive diffusion to have a respiratory system that wastes energy on muscles that pump air into sacs. (Hence why lungless salamanders, uniquely miniscule and hyperabundant tetrapods, have ditched their lungs in favor of breathing with their skin and buccal mucous membranes.) But large, active insects already use muscles to pump air in and out of their spiracles, and I don't see why their tracheae couldn't develop pseudo- lungs if other conditions pressured them to grow larger."-HangingTheif
"Considering the lifespans of modern non- insect arthropods (decade-old old millipedes, 50 year old tarantulas, 100+ year old lobsters) I wouldn't be surprised if Arthropleura had a lifespan exceeding that of a large testudine"-HangingTheif
"Humans have a tribal mindset and it's not alien for tribes to war on each other. I mean, look at the atrocities chimpanzee tribes do to each other. Most of people's groupings and big conflicts in history are directly or obliquely manifestations of this tribal mindset."-Sceynyos-yis

Only if you're making a completely new thread. Necroing the thread of the dead forum game is still bad. If you wanna revive something long-dead, think: "would it maybe be better to just start again?" 99.999999999999999999% of the time, the answer is probably yes.

“You should add more arthropods”
That's a reference to me, isn't it?
No I think that was just an example, not relating to anyone But that's not something people say.

Projects Punga: A terraformed world with no vertebrates Last one crawling: The last arthropod
ARTH-6810: A world without vertebrates (It's ded, but you can still read I guess)
Potential ideas- Swamp world: A world covered in lakes, with the largest being caspian sized. Nematozoic: After a mass extinction of ultimate proportions, a single species of nematode is the only surviving animal. Tri-devonian: A devonian like ecosystem with holocene species on three different continents.
Quotes "Arthropod respiratory systems aren't really "inefficient", they're just better suited to their body size. It would be quite inefficient for a tiny creature that can easily get all the oxygen it needs through passive diffusion to have a respiratory system that wastes energy on muscles that pump air into sacs. (Hence why lungless salamanders, uniquely miniscule and hyperabundant tetrapods, have ditched their lungs in favor of breathing with their skin and buccal mucous membranes.) But large, active insects already use muscles to pump air in and out of their spiracles, and I don't see why their tracheae couldn't develop pseudo- lungs if other conditions pressured them to grow larger."-HangingTheif
"Considering the lifespans of modern non- insect arthropods (decade-old old millipedes, 50 year old tarantulas, 100+ year old lobsters) I wouldn't be surprised if Arthropleura had a lifespan exceeding that of a large testudine"-HangingTheif
"Humans have a tribal mindset and it's not alien for tribes to war on each other. I mean, look at the atrocities chimpanzee tribes do to each other. Most of people's groupings and big conflicts in history are directly or obliquely manifestations of this tribal mindset."-Sceynyos-yis
"He's the leader of the bunch You know his Coconut Gun is finally back to fire in spurts. His Coconut Gun Can make you smile If he shoots ya it's firing in spurts. His Coconut Gun Is bigger, faster, stronger too! He's the gun member of the Coconut Crew! HUH!
C.G.! Coconut Gun! C.G.! Co-Coconut Gun! Shoot yourself with a Coconut Gun! HUH!"-Kamineigh
"RIP, rest in Peytoia."-Little
"In Summary: Piss on Lovecraft's racist grave by making lewds of Cthulhu and Nyarlathotep.
Then eat arby's and embrace the void."-Kamineigh
"Dougal Dixon rule 34."-Sayornis

Only if you're making a completely new thread. Necroing the thread of the dead forum game is still bad. If you wanna revive something long-dead, think: "would it maybe be better to just start again?" 99.999999999999999999% of the time, the answer is probably yes. That's what I did with the game which created a gigantic "quote pyramid". I created a new thread and it blasted in popularity

Victorbrine, several of your recent posts have come through twice. This could be because of pressing the add reply buttons multiple times when posting, even if it doesn't seem to be working at first, it often does go through.

Time flows like a river. Which is to say, downhill. We can tell this because everything is going downhill rapidly. It would seem prudent to be somewhere else when we reach the sea.
