Zombie Threads

[StrangeCondition]

Who the fuck is reviving all the fucking boring zombie threads! Are you really THAT bored?

This is getting on my tits!!
It doesn't usually bother me much. One yesterday and one on Graduates today.
Last night I posted my experience and a tip or two in good faith. It seems the Thread was resurrected by weirdos. Bugger Bugger Bugger.
My humble request is for a slight re-design of the OP box. Please print the date more conspicuously. Perhaps in a larger font and on the right of the box away from Poster's name.
Does this get to anyone else?

Mumsnet has a new linking service to similar threads that may be partly responsible

Lol. This thread is from August!

This is exactly what's causing all the zombie threads. It's the fucking stupidest thing mm has done. They need to bin this.

How do you think Hawkins saw it?

It wasn't the cause in August though. So isn't relevant to the op.

I was on another thread that was on about them, and then clicked on this and commented then realised ops

Ah,.not sure then.

Hawkins, where did you see it to click on it? In the ‘Similar threads’ box?

Ha ha. The irony...

This should be linked on the site stuff thread about the 'similar threads' thing.

Yea, that's the one

I rest my case. QED.

I really don’t see the problem if they are about something general, like a clothing brand.

Haha so stupid that Mumsnet themselves are resurrecting all these zombie threads. Great example with this one.

aLOLgorithm.

Isn’t it possible for MN to link threads (in case they think people might be interested, but can’t use the search function), but just have them as read only (no further comments) if they haven’t been active for a week, let’s say?

Ah, if only people had been requesting locking zombie threads for years instead of asking constantly for a random broken recommendation tool to go at the bottom of a thread....
