It's so funny how many people are butt hurt about it. I made it very clear that this was not a call-out post. I never said people who necropost are bad and need to be flogged for their crimes.

I just wanted to know why they do what they do. That's it.

But, when some people think about me, they see me like this:



Which is fine. It's not an accurate depiction of who I am, but there are worse things to be accused of.

If you’re saying that you’re not perfect then why do you seem so untouchable? Just a thought though.


What I want to know is what have I done that requires me to be touched?

Clearly you don’t get what I’m saying.

What I am trying to say that why do you say that you’re not perfect while you often times come off as someone who is perfect and does whatever it takes to come on top of the discussion?

Easy answer for you there.

I only post when I know what I'm talking about. If I don't, I don't post.

So, if I am arguing with someone about something, it's because there happens to be a right answer, and the other person is wrong. If they were right, I'd post supporting what they say. And I always do that - even if I do not like that person. When you are right, you are right.

Now, with that said, this post is about why people necropost. You are welcome to add your theories or even reasons why you necropost. This is not a Munchies appreciation post. If you wanna talk about why I'm so amazing, you can make a separate post.

I've commented on older posts. Not shmure whybit woykd be bad to comment on one. Honestly this whole non issue seems to be brought about by someone who likes to feel important and raise awareness where none is needed

Munchies:
It's giving "I'm mad because Munchies keeps telling people not to do what I do."

Also, were you sober when you typed that? I know I'm shit at spelling, but you are usually pretty good about that.

I blame my chubby figners.

I dont understand why necroposting is seen as something bad in the first place.

Personal ads aside. Why not add something in a discussion under a post that has not reached a conclusion? (And a lot of posts remain without a conclusion) Why care if it is even 1 year dead? Even if the original people are long gone, you can't limit all the potential interest of the discussion to only them! To say that, definetely, nobody else will be ever interested to see the discussion and then some conclusion!

Munchies:
This thread is less about why necroposting is considered rude and more about why people do it.


Its best to think about it in this way: If you have something to add to a discussion, that likely makes you interested to add it! The fact that the post has been inactive for a long while is, oftentimes, irrelevant.

If a topic is still relevant, what is wrong with answering it? Another option is to start a new thread.

If you find an old thread intriguing, chances are others will too.

Revive and enjoy the old threads. And add your new twists and questions.
