Noobylola, please stop resurrecting zombie threads. Could you tell us what you have to say in a fresh thread of your very own please?

AIBU to ask this?

I know its against MN rules but I think we should organise a care package of sweets and full sugar pop for noobyola.

Either for their kids or to distract them from trolling over half term.

I don't get what the deal is with zombie threads? What's the problem? Not being goady I don't get it

I have PMed them. I was hoping to get their attention a bit faster. Let's see if either methods work...

I would rather MN locked threads after a certain amount of time.

That way, people can read them and PM the OP if they want to.

Or start a sodding thread of their own.

Resurrecting threads (unless done by the original OP) is such a waste of time.

I agree with Lilac. There are ways to deal.

Oh I've just done one too, I mean wasted 15 minutes on a zombie, not resurrected one.
I didn't twig it was zombie till I saw a certain poster referred to and thought 'now hold on here, that name is just NOT around now'.
On that one, the DD whose party it was will be starting secondary soon!

I tend to just eye roll though, rather than pm people...

Right so you PMed them and no response. What made you think they would see a thread that doesnt go straight to their inbox any easier? Confused no response means they didnt see it or dont want to respond.

Anyone who is prancing round the site resurrecting old threads about a certain topic AND posting on them after reading just the OP without clocking the original date is very unlikely to even notice this thread tbh.

Because this is obviously one of them there dreaded lighthearted threads, it is perfectly harmless. Go along with the joke or ignore it, why not?

Far too much sweet stuff in that package. It needs some turkey twizzlers and wotsits to redress the balance, surely.
