If you'll check the reports you'll see that everyday there are at least 2 reports of me about that (and if you'll check my pm box you'll see that I'm trying to explain them what's wrong with that, but sometime without help)
If you'll make a clear rule about that issue and get active mods that will take care on the forum...
Hate to break it to you, but a month isn't a long time. If you think a month is a long time you probably have the attention span of a squirrel. Everything that's been reported that is ACTUALLY necroposting gets deleted and infracted.
and what about bump every 10 min in market-place? Those people r getting more posts just bumping a post is not fair
Post counz doesnt increase in market section.
A month in "game question & tips" isn't long time?? How is that?
If there was no reply for over a month, it means that the topic maker lost interest and the topic is no longer relevant.
And when those replys come with the same answer that ppl posted a month ago, yes it's spam and annoying
I felt as i my IQ was getting sucked out of me as I read this post, its not like posting in a month ld post is that hard of a necro, and makingm an official rule stating that its against he rules to spam/actually necro (as in adding some thng to a topic thats a few months-years old) is so unnecessary that I cant even put it in words.
Everyone knows its wrong, therefore its overkill to do anything else than whats being done already, which is reporting and adding in a comment with your motive behind reporting the post.
I'm going to let you in on a little secret... game questions section isn't active enough that stuff gets off the first page of it in any type of fast speed. Hence a month isn't a long time. And guess what? Months going by and the reply being the same is also useful information to people who might still have the question. It lets them know that the answer is STILL correct.
Here are some fun fact dates about the game question and tips section.
Main section: 4/3
Rogue: 4/11
Warrior: 4/12
Mage: 2/14
Priest: 4/16
Hate to break it to you, but it isn't necroposting if the topics are still on the first page. People don't look at dates when they reply to topics, they look at what's relevant or not. "Cama, how do they know what's relevant?" Amazing question little Jimmy, they don't. The best guess as to what they can guess is relevant or not is by going by what's on the first page.
TL;DR These "necroposters" that annoy you so much aren't CHANGING anything. They're bumping a topic from MAYBE the bottom(most likely middle) of your first page to the top of your first page. Big deal. As long as they answer the question with a legitimate answer then they aren't spamming. Get off your high horse.
KK w/e I tried
It may not be obvious to you but we rather have people "bump" their selling threads than creation one after another every 5minutes.
