I'm getting random zombie threads coming up on my trending

I don't know how often because I only click on threads occasionally. In the photo there is one that I just clicked titled 'PayPal asking for my ATM pin?' and it came up with a zombie warning at the bottom of the thread because it was from 2009. It hadn't been bumped by someone posting on it, the whole thread finished in 2009. It's happened a couple of times before too.

Hi there BlackAmericanoNoSugar. Thanks for letting us know about this. If it's still happening could you let us know whether you're using the app or the main site and what device and browser you're on? That will give us a little bit more to go on and see if we can find out what's happening. Thank you!

I'm using the main site on Safari on a Mac.

I haven't noticed it since I posted about it, but I don't click on many of the trending titles, only if something catches my eye.

Thanks for getting back to us. If it was just the one thread, it's probably just that it had a lot of page views at that particular time. Trending refreshes every five minutes, based on page views so if a lot of people are looking at one time, it can occasionally throw in threads that look anomalous but are there 'fair and square', if you see what we mean?

If it's happening a lot, do drop us a line again though.
