I'll necrobump this one next year, don't worry!

I've only necrobumped a single thread, it was a claim I did that turned out to be right, but I genuinely enjoy some necrobumpings sometimes, some really fun stuff to give a read, lol.

I'm actually OK with bumping old prediction threads.  If people are going to throw predictions out there, it's good to look back on those predictions later - and in some cases, it's very, very funny.

But that was covered in the rule in the first place (I remember the discussion):

• "Necro-Bumping (Namely posting in a non-Official/Moderator approved thread 30 days after the most recent post) will be treated as a form of spamming if the post in question has no valid reason for being posted, or treated as a form of flaming/trolling if the post in question is malicious in its intent. It will be up the moderator to rule on whether a necro-bumping post is pertinent or not."

Bumping a prediction thread to laugh at people has always been acceptable in the rules as far as I can remember; same as bumping a thread about a news story which is updated with more reason news etc.. Actually, not to laugh at people but perhaps to more... "retrospectively consider older forecasts with the added benefit of hindsight" or something

At any rate, reminders are always good Star so, thanks!
