It will definitely start to happen more as more forums start to join the fediverse (discourse for Eg).
Aren't forums absolutely notorious for forbidding "thread necromancy"?
Yeah necroposting is almost always frowned upon in favor of making a new post.
Forms vary with those types of rules. I absolutely hate the ones that are autolocking after a few days/months.
