There's something strange going on around here ...

On mumsnet I mean.

I just opened a thread in chat that was from 2004. "Someone's revived a zombie", I thought - but, no, the last post on it was also from 2004.

And the other day, I was browsing mn on my phone when I was interrupted. When I looked back at the screen it was in a different language! No idea how that happened!

Oh Riverlee, thank you! I knew my title sounded familiar but couldn't figure out why!

I think some of the old stuff gets revived as a “similar thread”. One just randomly appeared about challah bread from years ago for me. It’s a pain in the arse. As are the Korean spam posts.

That's interesting - not noticed it before.

But actually - how would an old thread be in chat with no posts since 2004?
