When you make other people think it was on accident but it really wasn't...
havent been a forum broweser for a long time, what does necro post mean?
posting on a thread that hasn't been posted on in a while
Why is that held in a negative light?
Because nothing in the thread is relevant any more. It's not uncommon for the subject matter of the thread to have been reworked one or two times since then, overall game balance changed, etc.
If you wish to talk about that subject, create a new thread.
(FYI: necroing threads is bad practice across all of the internet, not just the boards)
it's better to just post a new thread about it since bringing back the old thread will bring back too many dead conversations
to add to DrCyanide's example, it'd be like posting in an old thread about sated devourer being op on Yi and Xin Zhao.
That item isn't even in the game anymore, why post about it.
I recently had someone necro a post where I commented about Veigar being a LeBlanc counter because of his two point-and-click abilities and ult scaling with enemy AP. Yes, two reworks later, this person was trying to tell me why the current Veigar wasn't a good counter to LeBlanc.
If someone doesn't Necro this in a few days I'll be very disappointed...
Sorry, I'm a bit late

You necro'd it on purpose. Not on accident.
Irony denied.
