gravedigging... can someone tell me why is it so bad?

ricky409 · Mar 18, 2012

i dont get it...
why make a new thread when there's already a thread on it?

dont get me wrong, i like chiming in on girl threads but if there was more gravedigging, there prolly wouldnt be a new girl problem thread every other day...

i dont understand why when someone gravedigs, the first post afterwards is a

...

i'm starting to think people do it not because it bothers them.... but because they think its NT etiquette,

along with saying someone cares too much if they address something... saying someone reaches for lulz when they really just got you... and contrasting an OPs point within the first 3 posts to show individuality...

somebody lemme know...

also... if you gonna hit me with a

, atleast do something creative or post a funny gif..

I never understood it myself. I get flack for it but I NEVER bump a thread that is time sensitive. If I come across a new Jason Williams clip that I want to share with NT, I will post it in a pre-existing Jason Williams thread. Why would I make a new one? I don't know, it is like wearing hats inside. A pointless "rule" that people want to enforce.

I agree with the comment about NT'ers being pressed to say, "Why are you gravedigging." I just view it as dry snitching.

I seriously doubt that. I make a conscious effort to not bump time sensitive posts. I am sure it was someone else and I (as usual) got blamed for it.

i just dont get it...

i like seeing the old conversations of NT...

can we try to stop the following trend?

cuz i dont think anyone can justify the disliking of gravedigging.

The gravedigs in Sports & Training are hilarious sometimes

I don't have a problem with it

Shanegerous · Mar 18, 2012

Completely serious but upon clicking this I was thinking OP was contemplating getting a job actually grave digging.

DipsetGeneral is corny

He bumped a two year old Diggy thread with a Meek Mill video

He'll have like every post in a useless thread.

its when you post in a thread that's kinda old...
i guess the cut off date is a year...

after a year, you post in the thread and it brings it back to page one...

most times, people get super pissed and post a bunch of

after it...

then they'll say "why did you gravedig" "ban this fool" etc etc...

even if its in lieu of the convo, fambs... people will still try and spazz...

I think some gravedigs are okay though. (Like the People Lurking In The Background thread for example.)

Thank you ricky409. your name in real is ricardo yes?

ijapino · Mar 18, 2012

It depends on how you're gravedigging...

If you're replying with something informative, then it'll usually get a pass. It's those people who are obviously only trying to boost their post counts with one word comments and in multiple threads who will get the axe...

And yes, I have banned peeps for unnecessary gravedigs.

ham city · Mar 18, 2012

The problem is most of you fools have no sense of discretion. There are plenty of threads that are more than appropriate to 'gravedig,' others not so much.
