OK, what is going on here? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Recently I came across two threads that were old ones. They somehow happened upon the first page of this board and when I replied to both of them, I found out that nobody brought them up before me and that it seems like I bumped them up. Said threads are the "Is Elvis Alive" and "Sex" threads. Are there ghosts on these boards or something making mirages of old threads?

Am I the only one who is noticing this?

I just figured this out. The reason the threads are bumped up are because people have been voting in the polls and because people have recently voted in those polls, the threads are bumped back up. You see, Todd had set it months ago so that voting in a poll won't bump it back up but apparently he set it back. Now I get it.

Something straaaaange is happening....I posted something on some thread a few minutes ago and it disappeared....hmmm I smell a conspiracy

I was looking at old threads and saw that I never voted in the 'Sex' one. So I did. That's probably what brought it up. TJ disabled that a while ago, but I guess he brought it back. I was wondering if anyone would notice.

I noticed that too...I've been reading some of the old threads during the quiet periods here, but I didn't want to reply to any of them...

It's been bugging me.
