I always try following the rules, but sometimes I don't understand why they are there 
I see some topics solved that were never closed, and nothing bad happened, they simply stopped posting there (or sometimes they even give more useful information after it was solved).
Why is necroposting bad? I think it's useful to continue a thread and not explain everything again in a double topic, it will make people taking longer to find an answer searching in different similar topics.
I think something like: "I also have this problem but the solution posted here didn't work for me because..." it is useful, for the people asking and also for people responding.
Many times I find a topic never solved and I have the answer! but it was posted 1 year ago then I can not post, and I think many people find this topic and don't get the answer because we can't solve it because there is a rule that prevents us from doing it.
Thank you for reading!
This reminds me to the TAG rules, tags are not really useful, we simply do it because it is a rule (https://forums.rpgmakerweb.com/index.php?threads/how-to-search-in-a-forum-by-tag.132891/).
