Zombie thread resurrectionists are having a fun day today!

Fucks me right off

Why aren’t they locked after a certain time?! MNHQ has been asked this time and time again.

Somethingsnappy · 24/01/2022 18:14

It's the same usernames, right? Or variations of them.

Looks like it, yes.

Little fuckers!

It's really annoying!

Sparklesocks · 24/01/2022 18:18

They’re closing in on us…! 🧟‍♀️ 🧟‍♂️

TattiePants · 24/01/2022 18:21

In the last half hour there must be at least 20 resurrected zombie threads in AIBU alone. I think it is the same posted resurrecting a few threads, NC then resurrecting a few more, repeat, repeat.....

@ WeeirishWall

@pencilcracker

@WindowWall

@ Twasbefore

@ PYTT

A selection of the trolly resurrections.

T00Ts · 24/01/2022 18:23

Such a weird thing to do. Imagine being so insignificant you get your jollies posting on old threads?

MermaidEyes · 24/01/2022 18:23

I saw one earlier and clicked on it to see what twat had resurrected it only to find it was just the OP coming back with an update after 6 months 😆

MermaidEyes · 24/01/2022 18:27

My theory is its people who've had threads deleted getting their revenge

Yup, definitely the same person/people. Aibu is being flooded with them!

What a bizarre thing to do. Strange little person.

Or posters who have had everyone telling them they're unreasonable!

It is lovely to see lots of the old familiar user names !

PaleGreenGhost · 24/01/2022 18:33

I assume it's men who don't like women talking in a female dominated space. A form of fillibustering.

SniffMyFeet · 24/01/2022 18:34

God, they must be really bored and dull to do that

TattiePants · 24/01/2022 18:34

I reported one and got a message that MN are investigating. They seem to have locked a couple of threads now.

ponkydonkey · 24/01/2022 18:36

I'm on Mumsnet quite a lot ... and there are threads with a current time and date that I've read word for word before!

Usually a lighthearted funny thread... but the same posts
What's that all about?

MrsGinnyM · 24/01/2022 18:37

MN are on the case and closing some resurrected threads.

Somethingsnappy · 24/01/2022 18:37

@SniffMyFeet

God, they must be really bored and dull to do that
Probably some teenagers sitting stoned and cackling in a basement somewhere...

Where has the cartoon zombie gone? Always thought it should be at the beginning of the thread.

That's strange! I have no idea...

Personally I think it's someone or someones who are really complaining that they aren't locked and are forcing the issue.
