    Why is necroposting allowed in moderator applications? I mean, if you're going to necro an application that's yours, just make a new one. And for people that necropost other's applications (you know who I'm talking about) you do nothing but piss me off. Make necroposting against the rules, regardless of the section.

    The reason we allow it is because apps are not supposed to be closed. They can be open as long as players want them to be and bumped when they want to bring attention to the app.

    The thing is that logically if someone bumps an app over approx 6 months to a year old, staff will most likely lock the thread unless it is bumped by the OP with relevant information or the usual "bump".

    So in other words yes necroposting is allowed in the section but it has to be within reason. I don't think it needs to be changed necessarily until it becomes a huge issue.

    Just makes it so basically people can farm posts. It really pisses me off especially when the applyer hasn't been on for months. And the reviewer doesn't even care and always says the same careless crap.

    Support,
    The only person that should be able to necropost an application should be the thread creator. Too many people have been doing it lately for message counts. It's really annoying.
