Necroing?

**Dinglemouse** · 01-30-2011, 01:01 AM

So I was looking down my reputation thingy and I see a lot say this.

Necroing.

What is this?

**fortress** · 01-30-2011, 01:07 AM

It means you took an old thread that hadn't been posted in for a long time.. And then you posted in that thread.

Necroing is where you post in a thread that has been dead for more than a month without having something reasonable to add. Though, some people only consider necroing the former, not the latter, which may be your problem.

Or making a joke about what people incorrectly believe were Admiral Nelson's last words and freaking out because no one knows what you're talking about. "Kiss me, Hardy" should be his last words...that would be way more epic than either, "I have then lived long enough." or, "Thank God I have done my duty."

Yes, now let this one die so I can necro it in a few months. I have a plan.

Die, thread, die.

Oh, and I call dibs on the necroing of the necro thread.

**John Rambo** · 02-01-2011, 05:25 AM

I don't want you to have to double post.

**Barbarossa** · 02-01-2011, 05:52 AM

Pretty sure i have had sex with dead bodies. That might be down to how crap I am in the sack though.

**Dinglemouse** · 02-01-2011, 08:11 AM

Don't worry, there is more to life than sex.

JOKES!

Just take a whole load of viagra.

Yeah, you'd better believe this thread is being brought back up at least 4 times a year.

**Nichts** · 03-18-2011, 04:23 PM

I thought your timing was good, but the content ruined it. If you're going to necro a thread, you can't make it seem like you're doing it on purpose. You have to respond with something useless, but moderately on topic.

What you SHOULD have done is quote Dan Chak's post saying "Nice job ebol one!!!" and replied with "Thanks

"

That would have been properly brilliant.

So when I necro again I can reply to this with "**** you" and it will all be good? Good to know.

Yes, exactly. Or, now that I've responded again, you can necro it with something like "I'll keep that in mind." That would have the double effect of being both effective and ironic.
