The other thread was locked, understandable. So here's a repost.

i believe it's only 'necro' if the comment adds nothing to the thread. if you have something more than quoteing someone else and/or saying simply, "i (dis)agree", then it should be ok. at least that's how i recall seeing it explained.
9/10 people who post in a new/old thread about some problem regarding the download system simply write "Where is the download button" or "What happened to the download button",

At first it wasn't really a problem. You could understand that people took one week off Fakku, and when they came back THE DOWNLOAD BUTTON WAS SUDDENLY - gone. No where to be found. Just had to necro a thread from 2007 (about the old downloading bug. At least we got rid of that....), or make a thread about it. Because seriously he was the ONLY ONE.
We accepted all that. But now a little over 6 months when over 9000 people
(and counting) have asked the question and bumped too many thread to even count. With the simple phrases "What happened to the downloads?", do you out of all people
(I see you a lot in Feedback) still think that "they" will necro a thread from back 2008 with a "comment that adds to the thread"?
Because if you do, then I'll be utterly surprised over your extreme trust and patience. I would also send my regards to Jacob about you becoming the next helper.
