Scrolling "a little" back to 2002? Really?

I suspect maybe the Search tool is being used more? Or a bunch of folks are Googling questions and it's turning up old threads?

Would you mind telling us which product, HeavyG?

Oh, and I would think that spending an extended time in the presence of fiends would mkae one Fiendish, not a Half-Fiend.

Wish or direct intervention to find an old thread? That seems a bit extreme! Oh, wait, you were talking about the OP from 19 years ago and a different edition. Never mind.

I think that shading all posts from before 2015 might reduce the number these necros we see.

Find a fiend of negotiable affection.
Sign a contract arranging the birth and sole custody of your offspring with said Fiend.
Soultrap your child and continue adventuring. Become the BBEG!

It could be that the forums aren't churning out new threads each day, so scrolling through the list a little bit brought OP to one they're interested in replying to.

More likely it came up during a search.

Maybe just a warning pop-up "The conversation you are replying to has had no activity in [X] years. Are you certain you wish to call it back from the eternal purgatory of the message archives?"

To be fair, if rules have not changed on an issue, then Necromancy is the better way to do things. It keeps things tidy for people off-site trying to find information.

The consternation about thread necromancy is something I don't understand. It's completely okay for someone to not understand something that happened more than 5 minutes ago! Replying to an existing topic with existing answers is far tidier than opening up a brand new thread.

My search-fu in the Meta forum hasn't brought me to any rules against necroposting, and Terms and rules says nothing on the subject. We do seem to be getting a little off-topic now.

With the different editions that have been published since this thread was started, Tieflings seem to be the go-to for a fiendish (playable) race.
