Like half of all the current threads are from months ago, why are we doing this?
the one troll does it to recycle his bs and occasionally others search a topic and do it unintentionally
Because the next class to come out in WoW is the necromancer.
Somehow I feel like Iām going to be reading this thread again in 6 monthsā¦
because when you make a thread you get recommended topics
Donāt you dare, this thread is for here and now
sets a reminder for a very specific date in 2023
Carry on.
bookmarked.
Man I wish.
No, itās tinker
Itās spam. Report it as such.
We are necroing things because Blizzard didnāt set threads to auto lock after 30 days like they do on other forums.
Iāve blocked/muted so many trolls, I havenāt noticed any necroing, in my feed
They really should just add bothā¦

I honestly feel like we shouldnāt look at people necroing old threads as a bad thingā¦ think about itā¦ people complain to no end about people making āthe umpteenth millionth thread on ____ topicāā¦ so if someone necros a thread thats one less new thread on the same topic.
*Wonders if there are any ancient piggeh threads he can necroā¦
I think 30 days is unnecessarily short. Probably 6 months would be about right. Not forever.

Itās the strangest things. The EU WoW forums auto lock topics after 30 days except for the topics that got shoved over from the old forums. They have the tech, they know how to do it. Itās clearly a setting somewhere, and Iāve seen some threads set to close after 2 months.
Thereās also (apparently) a setting used in usually bigger threads where if you have players on ignore it auto-hides their post and doesnāt even have the āshow hidden messageā button they randomly apply.
I do wonder what other settings there is that they donāt regularly implement.
I mute them so they stop showing up.
Itās mostly one guy posting on three different characters who spams threads suggesting that Blizzard should add new races, add new mounts, partner with other companies, or add things from other IPs to WoW. He periodically bumps threads that havenāt been replied to in anywhere between two days and four weeks, always with some pointless one-sentence drivel as if heās in a Discord conversation. He also has an unhealthy neurotic obsession with Smurfs being in WoW:
The smurfs would be a cool new horde race. Bring the smurfs to WOW.
we need a glyph that turns gnomes into smurfs
they need to release the new smurf race
Then they can add a territory called SMurf Village, and add it to the races in WOW
Iām genuinely convinced he has some kind of disorder.
Just to bother you? Thatās good enough for me!
