From the horses mouth:
The clinical definition (If you will) of a "Necro Post" is posting in a dead thread. I.E: A thread that started where someone asked a question, it was answered, and months later receives another post where someone makes a completely useless comment unrelated to anything.
Questions that are never answered, but go longer than a standard week or two, can be answered by someone else so long as the post is still relevant to the information at hand. Something such as a "Post your ghillie suit" thread is not something that will ever become outdated, so long as the post is not useless. Critiques are good, but if the thread goes longer than 3 months and the only thing you have to say about it is "wow, looks great dude!" then just leave it as is.
Use common sense about this, but when in doubt, PM one of the moderators. That's what they're there for.
