Concerted effort by a very persistent troll. Or several.

Threads should be locked after no posts in say one month. The exception should be if the OP wants to come back months later maybe to say that she has finally left the abusive relationship or similar.

mamabear715 · 09/11/2022 15:17

Touche, @ZeroFuchsGiven - had just assumed it was a newbie or something, I should have realised..

But why 2007, that’s what I want to know.

FluffyYucca · 09/11/2022 15:19

Year they were born? Maybe?

MrsTerryPratchett · 09/11/2022 15:19

This has been suggested so many times before. As it seems to be such a simple solution I have no idea why it’s not already been done!

@stuntbubbles on the desktop version at the top of the aibu page, it shows page numbers and if you go to the last page they're all threads from 2007. Think they're just going through there resurrecting random ones

I'd guess they are one of those trolls that aren't keen on a mainly female space existing, so are trying to make the boards unusable.

I actually don't think it's a guy. I think it's the water/bison/m&s troll and theor writing didn't sound like a guy tbh

It is the latest you can go back for threads with replies I suspect

Thank you! I thought it was a weirdly specific fetish or part of a long-con master plan.
