Why do threads that haven't been replied to in a week keep popping up? |

2. Yeah, I just saw another one. Weird. No response, no kick. |
|
Just popping to the front. Like, instead of writing to the archive, it's writing to the front page of the Lounge.

3. Do they have anything in common? |
|
The magically kicked old threads; do they have anything in common? That would give a clue as to who is doing it.

they show a reply date and time that is current on the front page, when you open them there is no reply there.
Somebody has figured out how to do something, somebody earlier called it a 'ghost kick'

7. Me either. Look at start times. |
|
I looked at start times and they were all 3/19 or 3/18, so yes, we need examples.

I hope he can figure it out.
I included links from a couple of the threads that have been kicked in this way...
If he gets back to me, I'll pass on what he had to say...

20. I feel so sorry for them! I can't help it.... |
|
...When I was a child, I had to make sure all my stuffed animals were tucked in with me at bed-time. They all had to be touching, and I had to be touching all of them. It was a magical circle, don't you understand? I could not allow a stray to be out there alone, in the darkness, to be culled from the herd. The evil forces of the Abyss come in at night. Everyone knows this!
That is why those forgotten threads keep popping up. I'm saving them from the Abyss. The Abyss is a terrible place!
However, if you tell me I'm wrong, I'll stop. I'll stop doing it. I can't bear being told I'm wrong.
I had three stuffed-animal bears as a child: One was Big Bear, as he was the biggest; one was Pooh, as he was Pooh; and the other was Pansy, because my father said he looked just like me.
No! Wait. Don't tell me I'm wrong. I can't bear being told I'm wrong. I'll never do it again! But I can't stop doing it! Father? FATHER?
