    Gravedigging means posting on boards that are very old just to get points.

    It's about as technical as clicking on a month old thread and writing a new post for it just to get credit for it. Now if you had some earth shattering revalation to add.... maybe but you'd probably do better just to start a new topic.

    I just learnt it today from Bobafrett that gravedigging if bringing up old boards.. For an example, I saw a topic and the last reply was like 7 days old, it will be considered gravedigging if I reply to that post.. If I really have to say something to help the person or if I know an answer to that question, creating a new topic will be a better idea.. That was what Bobafrett told me.. Nowadays before posting, I keep checking when the last post was so in my humble opinion, don't go digging up old post.. :)
