As far as I'm concerned, the cutoff for it to be considered necrobumping is 1 week


What? Torrilan or how ever you spell his name told me it was 1 year. Than I saw
Nordlead say it was one month than I saw nazatips lock a thread that was bumped
but had its last post in 3 days. ?????? Help me I'm so confused.

You gotta understand, it's not a "6 days is OK, 1 week is ban" thing. Bumping a thread when the last post was 4 days ago just with "bump" is spamming. Bumping a thread that's 4 weeks old with a very intelligent post may not be spamming. It all depends on what was on that post

With the hot topics bar for people who are infrequent visitors we have seen threads tending to grow longer as people who visit the site less often still want to have their say. I wonder if the solution would be do have the 'glow' for a thread expire 7 days after the last post to prevent necromancy?



Tease.

Talk with Naznatips as he is the community manager.

As stated, I typically have the cutoff at 1 month, however I will take action for shorter periods if all the person did was post "bump" or the equivalent. After 1 month, you have to add some form of significant content. For me, continuing a month old conversation is just a way to stealth bump and not get caught, so it better be good.

I'm guessing my Predictions for 2009 thread is okay, since I am adding significant content to that, and besides, I want it to be there at the end of the year, so everybody can see how wrong they were
