Re: acronyms and abbreviations

Necroosting is when you post on a topic that is so old it’s annoying when you bring it back up.

Re: acronyms and abbreviations

@fungirl123: Bump is not an abbreviation, someone made that up. And you’re not bringing up a post, you’re bringing up a topic. So wouldn’t it be BUMT?

thank you.  I am assuming that necropost means "dead post", from necros (dead).
