Yes, many forum troglodites have this heinous reaction. Many of them are incompetent forum moderators. They are upset because they have notification of all changes happenning on the forum but this isn't novel and interesting to them personnally so they attack it with words like "necroposting". Those mostly recycled bbs people with almost no life left in them or OCD people who must compulsively complete and categorize everything and are upset when something is added to something they believed completed. Eventually we will rid our information ecosystem of these, at best, overzealous users or at least marginalize them so they stop causing damage, cutting connections, creating deadends and stopping progress generally. It's like I always say, progress occurs one funeral at a time.
