BelindaN Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 A movie is something you watch, maybe enjoy and forget. A great movie is one you watch, enjoy, forget some, but then watch again, enjoy, and remember some more. A really great movie is one you just keep watching. This nekro thread is best reburied.

Why people think responding to necro threads to say "It needs to be buried" always confused me. Your reply bumps it back up, if you truly believe it should be gone and forgotten then why reply?

What I don't udnerstand though, is how do people find these threads in the masses of old forum threads? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arielle Popstar Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 What I don't understand is why the need to make new threads for topics that have been covered over and over again. Seems much more parsimonious to just continue using one that already exists. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was started a thread Monday, where someone asked: And so, @clivesteelposted a link to his own thread from 2015 so we all should read it. Just now, Solar Legion said: This one was specifically linked by its OP, in a thread started by the one that Necroed the thread. I was writing this when you posted, lol.

In most cases I agree, however certain topics need new threads because situations change over time. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we need to be a bit careful about it, partly because some of those old threads are rather longish and often full of digressions partly because of the half-life of facts. Much of what was said a few years ago is outdated, sometimes because SL has changed, sometimes because we've learned more since then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
