Not sure why, but I find this hilarious!

There’s a system message for this thread that states “7 years later” before the post that brought back the thread.

 

(read it like a voice over from Dukes of Hazzard)

I think this is beause players google swtor questions, and then click the first link and post, not even bothering to check when the OP was made.

We have seen quite a few necros as of late, and it boggles the mind as to why no one checks the OP date, but ain't nobody got time for that is my best guess...

Nothing wrong with casual occasional necromancy..assuming the OP has aged well. Like..some thread wondering about release date of Shadow of Revan expansion for example would be obsolete. Some other thread talking about how great Trooper story is or whatnot?  Stuff like thaty doesn't expire.

Didn't say there was anything wrong with it.

Only commented on the system message that reads like a voice over in my mind.
