Is the a particular reason thousands of old threads have just suddenly been bumped in the forums?

It's literally on all the forums I'll embed an image of what I'm seeing when I go to the forums.

That is so strange. I checked a few different sections and they're all normal on my end. The oldest posts are from about an hour or two ago.

Clean your cookies and it's gone.

Have had that bug many times before.

I'm seeing it on all forums for some reason the are threads from years ago litter all over them along with the recent threads, another image for reference.

Thanks that's fixed the problem.

If you check the screenshot again you will see that the actual problem was that the list was sorted by posts and not by last post. So it's not just random old threads but the ones with the most posts. For some reason if you change the order of posts this setting gets stuck in the cookie. That's why deleting the cookie works.

Haven't been able to access the site at all for long stretches of 6-8 hours both yesterday and today.

They're bad for your teeth. Especially if you smoke dope. And then the dope makes you want even more cookies. Plus, the dope makes you tired and lazy, which means you're not only less likely to brush your teeth, but more likely to fall asleep with a mouthful of cookies. None of this would have been a problem if the cookies were deleted.

Site information is showing Dangerous in red lettering for all forum threads rather than the usual secure not secure message .

This seems to be related to the phishing warnings I have run across in a couple of threads.
