Delay "necro posting" advertisment https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=44380.msg1011386#msg1011386

"Warning: this topic has not been posted in for at least 60 days.
Unless you're sure you want to reply, please consider starting a new topic."


Two months without posting, in a deck, isn't that much. I think the necro advertisment should be delayed to six months instead of two.

Reason:
Why is that advertisment there? To prevent people (mostly noobs) to resurrect threads which were abandoned because they got useless, for example a deck that has been definitley improved in another thread. There are many useful decks that haven't been commented in 2 months and they are still being used and consulted. There is no need to suggest making a new thread for those decks, where the thread would be just a comment or a slight modification of the original deck.
I bet there are tons of threads that haven't been commented since August and they are still being consulted even if it's in a deck-by-cards search.

About non-deck sections, competitions and tournament stuff is locked so there's no problem with it, and I can't imagine a topic where more than 60 days without commenting would make it old.


tl;dr: Change the necro posting time no 6 months instrad of 2.

I would agree to extend the necro deadline, but 6 months sounds like too much. This would include non-deck threads right? Noobs would post in 5 month old threads such as introduce yourself. :P

Is it really so much of an inconvenience? I feel like the number of noob posts it prevents is worth the slight delay.

If a discussion has been halted for more than 2 months then it is reasonable to ask if the poster is sure they want to try to initiate more discussion. If there is reason to initiate more discussion then it is not a bad necro. The warning ensure fewer necros are bad necros.
