I didn’t realize that was a major source of new posters, I had thought most zombie threads come back to life from [spammer activity](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/toc-giving-misleading-information/933679/4) or some [relevant bump](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/what-do-you-believe-regarding-global-climate-change/512352/31).
