MODERATORS
Basic forum etiquette. It's horrifying at work seeing teams "teams" (forums) used like chats, all the cross-posting and thread necromancy, people completely unable to keep topics confined to the appropriate sub-forum, etc
AKA "discussing something with new information more than 31 seconds after people got bored of it"
Necroposting is a slur by the terminally online against normal people trying to get shot done. They're the reason why every Google search that leads to a forum ends with some guy asking your question and being told to start a new thread instead.
Been to the Arch forum too ey? :p
