I for one, look forward to one day necroing this thread just for the sake of irony. Yes, that will be a great day. Maybe I should bookmark it for that purpose?

We may have lived in naivety for too long my friends, the fire of hope is dying quick, and we have done nothing!

Many of you may ask what I am referring to... Well my people, I am of course referring to the plague that is, Thread necromancy!

Funny, I thought it was -insert aggressive but not too rude adjective here- people who keep breaking the rule about posting a clear topic-name yet complain about other rules being broken.

Sigh.

OT (since if I don't post anything OT, I too am breaking a Code of Conduct Rule): It's not soo bad, compared to, oh I don't know, WoW-Forums.

My arrows shall pierce their knees! I mean brains! We shall be known as the men without knee pants! Death to the necromancers! (P.S a cookie that may or may not exist to the first person who gets where I got "the men without knee pants" from)

i'm starting to think you don't own any of these things! necromancers are walking about and you're having an online wang measuring contest.

OT: re-reading some of the stupid stuff you said in the past helps remind you of what to say in the future. long live necromancy.
Don't own one? Here's a random photo I took of myself the other day

Oh it is a dark power that only few dare to wield. Yet there has been a dangerous increase in the dark art of late. It has claimed the dignity of many innocents who unknowingly post in a thread that should have been laid to rest long ago....

I'm calling together an army, but I need all of you, the Escapist community, to rise up, and face the evil force head on! To report the corrupted beings who dare interrupt the rest of a thread that has done it's duty, and only wishes to rest in peace!

I plead to the Moderators, who battle long and hard to keep the evil at bay, to bolster their efforts once more! So that we may all save our souls!

Finally, I thank you all for reading, good luck, and good hunting my friends. Many of you may fall in this battle. But know that you will die seeking a just cause, for the future of the Escapist!


There has been no increase in our use of the unholy art of late, we have simply allowed you who do not know the power and beauty of the unholy art to see more of our influence. HA! Go ahead and call forth your army. For every thread, post, and topic you assemble will one day die and bolster our forces.


The problem is that if there is a discussion you want to have and there is already a thread on it you have two options. You can make a thread and get blasted for not using the search bar, or you can revive the thread and get called a necro. Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

Quick! Fetch the church elders and some holy water! This evil must be eradicated!

But yeah it is annoying when you click on a seemingly normal thread...and it's from a year ago.
We're going to need some experianced paladins, too! (BTW, love your avatar)

OT: I really hate this. Especially when someone brings up an old thread...by you!

I think sovietheavy made a thread as a plight to lock old threads, so they couldn't necro on you.

Hey, the thread even got another actual response. I consider this arcane ritual a success!

Now I must flee, and hope I don't get struck down by the variety of weapons/vehicles/miscellaneous objects the anti-necromancers apparently brought along. Even if I am though, I'm a necromancer now. I'm pretty sure that means I can't be killed.

Haha, it is appropriate, isn't it? I didn't even notice.

You may call upon this dwagon when you need him.

(In all seriousness, I've noticed a lot more threads getting necro'd lately. Especially in the News Room. I've been Reporting more often, as necessary.)

If people didn't want to answer an old thread then they could just ignore it and let it die [small](again)[/small] like a sensible human being instead of trolling all over it and being foolish about the whole thing. Seriously, if it's a repeat thread or a pointless necro then just ignore it and nature will take its course.
If there is a good reason for a necro then I'm all for it. Same as a new take on an old idea. I see no problem with either if people are willing to discuss stuff. Don't hate it people, just ignore it and it will go away.

This thread has been necro'd. The irony is delicious
I don't know, at a month old, it's almost still twitching. And who doesn't love a good dose of irony from time to time? You just can't beat that bittersweet tang.

Goddamn it I thought this was a follow up on that naked fellow who chewed off some other guys face.
Thought scientist had actually diagnosed him with a contagious disease of some sort.

The Scourge shall not stand idly by as you, warriors of a 'Pure' Internet, try to purge the land of those who had fallen, only to be Resurrected for a higher purpose. Necromancers, take hold! And prepare for the war of the Threads to begin!



(Sorry guys, normally I'd be a Paladin in these situations but to be honest, I see nothing wrong with thread Necromancy, and I have Resurrected 1 or 2 threads here and there, mostly 'the scary thread'.)

Y'all know me. Know how I earn a livin'. I'll catch these necros for you, but it ain't gonna be easy. Bad fish! Not like going onto the forums and chasing trolls and alternate accounts. These necros, swallow threads whole. Little shakin', little tenderizin', down they go. And we gotta do it quick, that'll bring back the visitors, that'll put all your businesses on a payin' basis. But it's not gonna be pleasant! I value my neck a lot more than three thousand bucks, chief. I'll find them for three, but I'll catch them, and kill them, for ten. But you've gotta make up your minds. If you want to stay alive, then ante up. If you want to play it cheap, be on welfare the whole year. I don't want no volunteers, I don't want no mates, there's too many members on this site. Ten thousand dollars for me by myself. For that you get the heads, the legs, the whole damn thing.
