Probably a message from the Universe that I should get off the site... But there have been at least 3 threads across topics today that I have definitely read before. And I don't mean updates bringing threads back to life. I mean, they're posted as new threads. The Putin Posse one is a case in point.

I've noticed this for a while actually. As in weeks of stuff being posted as a new thread that I KNOW I've read before.

Unless I'm being really thick and it's some technical issue?

There was a spade of threads recently asking mundane questions from the same poster, and they were all posted at the same time so I assume it was a bot.

I have noticed exactly the same thing. I reckon there have been around ten threads incidents where I thought I have read this before, word for word. I've checked the date, thinking that they must be zombie threats, but they are posted on that day. There's nothing particularly unusual about the threads so I can't imagine trolls getting involved with them.

Wow I thought I was going mad! Yes you’re right. I’ve noticed a couple over the last 2 months.

There have actually been loads lately. One had a post marked yesterday about a boyfriend who was still in a country with severe lockdown restrictions 🤔
