Time Delay Fuse?

LJ is behaving rather strangely. I just got emailed some comments people posted about one of my photos. The thing is, these comments were posted *over a month ago*... screwy. Anybody else getting emailed old comments?

Comments

[misterx.livejournal.com]

It's strangely fun.

[darkmoonrose.livejournal.com]

it is.. in an odd way :)

[jaws-of-life.livejournal.com]

Yep..about 8 or 10 from the last few days of June!

status is your friend

or rather, should be

So, they're going to backlog the current comments so they can send us the old comments? heh.

[busychild424.livejournal.com]

I'm just happy to be receiving my old comments at all. :-)

[morbidlybella.livejournal.com]

yes.. the same is happening here....it's entertaining.
yet annoying.

[misterx.livejournal.com]

like me!

[mark33.livejournal.com]

Yeah.

[misterx.livejournal.com]

actually I rather like it. it's like finding money in the jacket you haven't worn since last year.

[dampscribbler.livejournal.com]

I've got two from the beginning of July, and I had already read them. Feels like deja-vu.

[misterx.livejournal.com]

Yes, rather. :)

[ceruleanfire.livejournal.com]

yes, its weird, receiving comments from way back. LJ is acting very nutty, I got like 20 of them this morning :(

[misterx.livejournal.com]

It was noted in maintenance, but it's still bizarre. Why not just blow them away? They're months old now. I think the ability to notify the original poster in a timely fashion has long since expired.

[natf.livejournal.com]

I am. Wierd. Probably related to the LJ maintenance.

[misterx.livejournal.com]

Its still a strange decision. Why bother sending them at all, now that they are months old?

[natf.livejournal.com]

Well, I for one amd glad to be getting answers to questions that I asked and had assumed nobody cared enoug to answer - I was very depressed for a while, there...

[misterx.livejournal.com]

Yeah, actually I changed my mind about it. I'm rather enjoying the historical comments.

[lilith17.livejournal.com]

I'm getting them. Mostly ones I'd already seen, but a few I hadn't, which was nice.

[misterx.livejournal.com]

Yeah, same here, a few surprise ones mixed in.
