I've no beef with a thread 1 or 2 months old tops, IF the topic is still unresolved or up to date. However, many of these threads necro'd have long since expired and become outdated, thus causing confusion and therefore counts as trolling.
As for your point yes too many of a certain topic is annoying, especially if too frequent, but oft times they encourage opening a new thread instead of reviving an old one to ensure that the info is kept up to date.
If you spend enough time on the forums to not only know which threads are being necroed, repeated, etc., but to be irritated enough by it that you feel the need to post a new thread about it that declares it to be a problem...You might just be spending way too much time on the forums.
Sounds to me like you need to take a break from being a professional forum poster, and do something different for a while, like spending more time playing the actual game.2 -

But the necromancer is 5 stars! Must be their leader or at least a higher up, after all everyone else was 3 stars or less.
