Is something going on no one has told me about?
Seems to be some form of competition, who can find the oldest thread to revive?Is this an official contest?Its so frustrating , you read a thread, think that's a good idea or thats useful information, then you find the original was started two years ago so everything is out of date

I wonder too, it is annoying to see all these threads revived.

I now make a point of checking back on dates of posts, also looking to see if a new post is actually relevent to the thread. I keep finding posts with "quotes" from long dead subjects. I think it is just someone trying to stir things up , and now do not even bother to join in with these stupid games.

It is kind of aggravating, old threads being dug up, but maybe it is not always mischief making?

When I log-in, threads that I have not read yet, or have new replies on them, are highlighted in bold blue type. If you are new here, maybe everything is in bold and it just looks like a list which you want to dig through without checking dates?

There are those attention seekers who dig stuff up to cause strife (I know, hard to imagine eh?) but maybe it's newbies making genuine mistakes as well?

Naah it is done by 2 persons, maybe the same one, that are having fun to disturb the board.

I would make them a warning if they continue to do this they get banned, and hopely for ever!

Think it is only on this thread, as there are no similar threads. ie none to do with Deja Vu.

I have this strange feeling I may have said this before.
