I do think it's a little silly that necroposting is now listed as 'against the rules', whereas before it was just a guideline (even though there's an exception, in the current rule).
I'd rather it was just a guideline, than an enforced rule personally, but it looks like the 'guidelines' section was removed. Unless someone's literally taking the piss and bringing back 3/4 threads that are way old, I don't see much of a problem. There's certain other 'rules' that I think would be better suited as 'guidelines' too tbh. Things that should not necessarily be strictly against the rules, but are frowned upon and if done repeatedly to cause disruption then it should be actionable.
