- "Dude, nice necro... that topic is from 2006."
necro
clipping verb
To post in a discussion thread that is very old and stagnant. By posting, a user brings the thread to the top of the board, bringing the dead discussion "back to life". Generally a frowned upon offense. Can stand alone as a verb, or used as a prefix such as "necropost".
Etymology : From necromancer (Greek necro- (death) + -mancy (divination))
