When I first joined, I found a thread by searching with google which brought me to LPF, I then registered to add a question to the thread with the same result, I necroposted and received whippings with a wet noodle. Welcome to LPF, many members don’t like bringing threads which are years old and waking the dead. So most won’t post to old threads now. A lot of forums on the net have the same consensus, what I don’t understand is why they aren’t locked after a year to prevent posting to them. I’ve suggested this a couple of times, no change.
I’ve griped over necroposting in the past too, we have had a banned member doing that just to annoy us, we never know whether someone doing this is a troll, or someone new, so the noodle whip is often used. I would be projecting to say that is what happened this time though.
