What is a zombie thread?"
Old thread(cut-off point varies) that has been brought back to life, usually for no good reason.
Exception: thread revived to update the topic. Say a crime was committed and years later the suspect is convicted.
srsly?
A thread that has not been posted to for a significant amount of time and then someone posts to it.
Dammit. You guys were supposed to wait five years and then post the answer.
You forgot to add “…after the OP is banned or long gone and will not see the answer anyway.”
Threads about actual (or fictional) zombies are also zombie threads.
I put a note on my calender for 5 years hence to reply to this thread.
You don’t want to know what happens when you resurrect those…
wraaaarrr!!!
Not. Funny.
Stop.
