I've come across these "zombie" threads and sometimes I see a post by someone that I haven't seen around here in ages. For a moment I think, "hey, they're back!" Then I look at the date and realize it's just a zombie thread. |
I agree. One time I revived an older thread on purpose, because I didn't want to reinvent the wheel, but in my revival note, I specified that I knew it was old but I wanted to comment on it.
