Here we go again. Someone has woken up an ancient thread. I posted on that thread on 2 September 2025. But it doesn't show up in "I'm on".

Why not? I might be interested if someone has added to a discussion I once found worth taking part in. "Old" threads are often still relevant or it's just nice to see them again, especially if people have added to it since I contributed.

My first stop on GN is "I'm on", so I only found this ajfter looking on "Active"

What is the cut-off date for this strange phenomenon? Discussions over a year old? A month? Is it random?

Does anyone else wonder about this?

That is an interesting observation.

In fact, I have sometimes been reading through these resurrected threads and come to a response that has made me think, "yes, my thoughts exactly exactly!' That has prompted me to look who had written it, only to discover that it had been me, some time in years gone (😁 😁 😁), though my old post wasnt highlighted, as it would be on current threads.

Interesting topic to which I don't have an answer.

However, my "I'm on" list has been wiped twice in recent weeks. In fact, as of today, it's only showing the last 4 days worth, including today. Maybe there is a time limit.
