Zombie Threads

Overheal · 2008-12-03 16:44:25

I noticed on a couple other vBulletin boards I saw this: I figure adding this on might stop a few of the random zombie threads we see happen every now and again across boards. Also whats that trackback yoke?

Sorry for bumping this ancient thread.

The OP has made a good suggestion, and I cannot understand why it has not been implemented already. It's been almost a day, ffs!
