Just had a notification that a user had reacted to a post of mine from 2007.
it is a tiny thread with about 8 posts (3 are mine) not even an interesting thread.
I really can't imagine any real person is reading a thread from 2007.
so are the reactions real?

edited to add it was by anonymous user

Morning @BillericayDickie. This sounds legit, don't worry. If a user is registered, but has never posted (and therefore, never chosen a username), they can show up "Anonymous user" because we have no other identifier for them. It's probably someone who has searched for a topic on Google, found an old thread and just wanted to respond, as a previous poster here suggests. If you have any further contact or worries about it though, just let us know and we'll take a closer look.
