Current Events > It's so weird you guys talk about "necrobumping"

(+) Yeah! (+)

That was never really a term on gamefaqs ages ago, noting really lasted that long. It kind of feels like youre trying to make it a thing

Funny story that kind of posting is half of what happens on basically every other board now because nobody uses message boards anymore

Must be weird to be a zoomer who decides to try out that weird message board thing your dad uses rather than making a Snapchat or whatever kids did about six years to eight

Now youre looking at all these new kids with their tick tocos and using your old words like necrobumping like youre some kind of message board hotshot while gamefaqs as a whole rather than the entryway that is ce is like necrobumping? That was never a gamefaqs thing. We all bump topics here. Go back to ebaumsworld

Whose alt is this?

Ha ha, sweet summer child. If I was going to necrobump as youve so non gamefaqsly termed it, I would proudly display my post as proof of my wit and wisdom. Self delete? Sad. Shameful.

Necrobumping isn't a thing on gamefaqs because they lock old topics after X amount of time. Is that even still the case?

On other forums, threads could be necrobumped years after the last post.

Threads on GameFAQs are only locked (or purged) after a given time since the most recent post in the thread.

Sweet summer child? Cringe.

One of the most serious issues of our time, really. It must be stopped

I legit do not know why necrobumping makes you guys seethe so much.

It is my own old account thankyu

Yeah there has never been rule against bumping old topics on GFAQs, people whining about necrobumping here need to GTFO.
---

What an embarrassing topic
---

Proper necrobumping isn't something that can really exist here due to topics purging. Like no one is going to suddenly revive a topic that stopped being used years ago just because that can't happen here.

Neither do I. Oh no, someone posted in an old topic! Shutdown everything!

This

Cmon two days ago is a baby topic.

or, you know, you can bump the topic with new and relevant discussion material?

let the dead topics stay dead. trying to keep them going when clearly no one is interested is just a pathetic waste of everyone's time. doubly so when they aren't even your topics.

---

I just think it's weird that some guy finds it enjoyable to keep topics that no one is interested in anymore going for weeks. Especially since a lot of the topics are about disturbing news stories.

tin-foil hat me thinks that it's a mod alt (or wannabe staffer) trying desperately to keep the page count above 20. then i remember just how ridiculous such an effort would be.
