The only grave digging I approve of is one of those lurker/interesting pictures thread.
And the one I laughed at the hardest was the guy asking what a half caesar haircut looked like only to ask again 1 year later...Now THAT was comedy. But most of them are annyoing

 

[|A-Man|]

A lot of yall don't know what threads not to gravedig. A lot of you are not bumping with informative posts. I've seen dudes bump old PYP threads, any thread based around lulz, or just old gf problems/story threads just cuz.

That's why I like that some mods have just decided to lock threads after a certain period.

Really though what are yall doing on pg 322 anyway?

Well it's not like I told him who she was, just told him where he could find it. And since this thread is about gravedigging, I thought it would be HILARIOUS if he gravedigged that thread. Yahearrrrdd?

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.

This one time you gravedug a post about a knicks trivia contest i made and you bumped it two years later.. 

 Contest was already over, I didn't need the answer anymore...

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.

Bro, don't deny it 

 That old avy is still engraved in my memory...you bumped the thread with a link to a NBA stat website

 

[teamjordan79]

gravedigging is necessary especially if a thread is pending an update. Like that thread about the dude who predicted the end of the world .....then the thread was bumped on that day... 

 

[soversotowel]

I once bumped a thread that was like a year & 1/2 old with a "

" and then dirty pm'd me.

 

[Spectacular23]

The best one was the dude made a thread about a haircut around dec 17 2010 i think.....then reply to his own thread around dec 20...but in 2011...literally waited a year for his answer to his thread. 

 

[krazy88s]

Well, do you read 2 year old newspapers? I didn't think so.

 

[toast1985]

*sets post in planner to bump 2 years from now*

What about ol boy that was tossing and turning all night for a year over what a half moon fade was?

If nobody dug that up he probably wouldve offed himself

I remember when MrWavez bumped an old Nelly "Stepped on My J's" video from 3 & 1/2 years ago in the Jordan Forum with a response about when the Concord 6 rings were gonna drop.......when they dropped 3 years ago

That was hilarious. He came back a year later and said "anybody?". People were posting the Sting .gif. I was cracking up at that 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...

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

naw, fambs.. rickery tickery tock...  (that would be dope)
my real name is ricky, doe.

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.

that's the thing though, fambs... it doesnt get a pass cuz people will follow it up was 

 instead of either contributing or not saying anything at all.
those are the ones who are making unnecessary posts...

naw... but i'll check a 2 year old Slam magazine out in a minute...

also, there are literally dozens, if not hundreds of new members in the past calender year that will regularly post in general.

what's wrong with bringing up some lulz that they may have missed out on?

i fell outta my chair laughing when i seen some of the "I just seen Pharrell" thread...

i wasnt around when that happened.

 

[scientific method]

I don't get it either. I have been banned for it, and the thing is I "gravedug" the thread and people were still responding afterwards so they were just fine until finally someone points out that is an old topic and then everyone else in typical nt sheep mentality starts quoting their stonefaces and posting gifs we have seen a trillion times.

What is the point of the search button of dudes are just going to ovaryact and start crying if you post in something older than a week old or past the first 4 pages?

Like for example I have a thread in Sports called the 'head over the rim' thread that is posting and celebrating extremely athletic plays on the basketball court of that caliber. It has been a few weeks without something new to add, but the other day both Blake Griffin and Gerald Green made plays that should be added for "eek value and part of the thread was vertical leap discussion, comparison of people, etc. but I am scared to post it because I don't want to get banned again. This is my 2nd screen name and I am blessed I was given this 2nd chance.

It's necessary though, with some of the dumb @*** said in S&T making people eat crow is priceless.

 

[water]

In five years to the day I will gravedig this post

5 years I've been waiting for this day..... 

But I don't see you anywhere in sight
