Forum usage of the term necro :
It's finding a ridiculously out of date thread or piece of information and bumping it to the top of the forum, often fooling people into taking it as current news.
Sexual term of necro...
ugh ask your parents.

Necro threads are very old topics "resurrected" - usually after they have been done to death several times
The derivation of Necro is from Necromancy which is magic involving the raising of the dead.
That help any?

Reading my post again, I did fail to specify that I meant the forum term.
Thanks for you answer. |

to necro a threat: to post in a threat, not been posted in since years. Bringing it back to page 1 (live) from page 100+ (grave).
The term derives from "Necromancer" which is a character class in a lot of fantasie mmorpg. ------- http://www.stillbruch.ch |

A necro is to bring back a thread from the dead, a necromancy of a old thread, and done unconstructively. Have no idea why people do it though.... - Thanks Hutch. ____

Necro, latin for "dead" or "death". To Necro a thread, you post in a very old thread so it loosk like it is new. Necrophilia, um... having sec with dead things

I'm pretty sure it's cause the thread showed up in a search and the reader didn't notice the old date and responds to it.

because they feel they have something relevant to add to a thread?
and because they work in packs with the mongs who post "NECRO IS BAD MKAY" every. single. time.

Man I feel like i'm going round in circles reading this. I mean how many times do you need to post the same thing before people stop posting it Lmfao
However if you feel the need to post it again.
Necro, means to revive an old dead thread by posting to it, when it is way past it's sell by date.

Although your faith in the honorable intent of our fellow whorum fores is laudable, I believe you are sadly mistaken.
They just want attention. As do those that subsequently vilify them.

Edited by: Dark Shikari on 13/06/2007 13:03:20 Necro means to resurrect an ancient deceased thread by responding to it when it is considerably beyond its expiration date.

Oh man I hate those jerks. :) I remember nuking the hell out of this one fellow with my Runie, then out of the corner of my eye I spot movement.
His entire skeleton army, ignoring everyone else in the battle and making a beeline for me. Needless to say, strapped of mana as I was, I ended up praying at my own gravestone that day. So to speak.

I've seen it happen though where a really old thread comes to the top of the forum WITHOUT someone bumping it - strange but true.
