Necroposting versus neoposting

[Deleted User]Bles (deleted user)

Necroposting: the act of digging up old discussion threads and posting statements under that old thread.
Neoposting: the act of starting a new thread regardless of whether or not it duplicates or mirrors old topics in that thread.
What is the alternative to posting old topics with a new or different spin or perspective? Should you post new threads that are sometimes duplicates of old ones? What's the ettiquette concerning posting topics: old or new?

  • Doesn't bother me. I just learned to pay attention to date stamps. Carry on

  • I read what I'm interested in and ignore what I'm not interested in regardless of age of thread
