Dune threads, DrCrowTStarWars necrobumps, and Hopscotch.

I want to talk about three issues that are taking place in the off topic forums. Of the three things mentioned in the thread title, I am only responsible for the last one. First of all, if the whole Classic Roc/Hopscotch thing is a forced meme and too childish, I apologize.

There are two other weird things going on in the forums recently. First is the Dune threads that occurred yesterday (as of this writing). Can somebody explain how they came about? What caused them to start being created. I know I missed something but I'm not sure what.

The final point, and the one that is most worrying, is DrCrowTStarWars bring back random threads from 10 years ago for no reason. This, combined with the Dune spam, succeeded in taking several threads that have recent responses to page 3.

I know that Off Topic is unmoderated, but I think this is taking things a bit too far. Can somebody explain the Dune spam and the necrobumps?

Nobody sang The Bunny Song in years…

The Dune threads aren't new threads, they're from the same time period as all the other ones DrCrow bumped. They date back to OT.com's famous "Dune Explosion." See the Classic LOL moments thread for more.
