The thread you're replying to is like 7 years old. Please try to avoid resurrecting very old threads.

Yes, my bad. Sorry for the noise.

I will, though I find the dogmatic prejudice against necroposting abhorrent.

Are you sure you really mean that? I mean politely asking you not to resurrect old threads is "abhorrent" and not merely just a bit irritating? "Abhorrent" is usually reserved for stuff that will put you in jail for a good few years. Do you think we should lock Nicholas up for a while?

Otherwise it was a nice turn of phrase. :)

Nicholas is too valuable to be put in jail.
