You're a bit tardy.

Why are we needing new topics?
2561 threadsought to be good enough for everyone. Dickcourse can track the conversation and new plugin will give us the great threaded view as evidenced in other cgi software forums.CGI != Computer Generated Images.
Because threads are liberty!

It's not an exploit, really. It's also terribly wasteful when you could do the same thing by just embedding your comment inside of < >
<Like this>Ah, when posts could easily have hidden content...

All the crap I did last night, and posting in a Suggested Topic to Necro is what someone complains about? At least I only did that at Dicsourse's suggestion!
If you want to necro a topic, at least be on topic (original or emergent).
Okay okay.... Geeze!

Ooh, interesting. If the necroing post breaks into a new page (in paginated viewing, which real readers use), then the necro "XX time later" banner doesn't appear.

The last time I heard that from a Brazilian, I had to push her down a flight of stairs.

@Polygeekery
You waxed her?
-
@Polygeekery I'm not sure it's wise to go sledding down a staircase.

luckily there already was a doctor at the bottom of the stairwell

@dkf I want suggested topics back ...

yeah that made it a lot easier to necro totally unrelated topics

confirmed by another real reader.
-
TIL @djls45 has paginated view with the exact same # of posts per page as I do.
-
@darkmatter probably because it's the maximum # per page allowed.
-
@darkmatter how many? I think I use 20

Ooh, that's a good idea for a userscript.
-

The maximum is 50. The default is 20, IIRC.
I think the default for streamed-in posts is also a page size of 20, even though the page breaks are invisible. I should check to see whether the necro-banner bug exists there too...
edit: once I finally found the topic that I originally saw the bug in... the necro banner appeared when I had infiniscroll turned on. So I guess the bug only affects paginated view.

The sponge font has been taken outside and shit 17 times in the head, 14 times in the heart, and 58 times in the gonads.

@RaceProUK My bowels have not been showing a solid performance lately. It's been playing fast and loose with my food
