Zombie threads, on this forum, are loosely defined as threads that are resurrected after a year or more of inactivity. It's there for informational purposes, but it hasn't been active for a long time.
At the bottom of every post in every thread is a time/date stamp. If you see a thread is older than a year, consider whether you want to resurrect a thread that old. Maybe the question is answered or if you are interested in the original thread, maybe start a new thread with current information. Maybe it's something that is not even currently relevant (like someone asking about travel plans from two years ago).
At any rate, it seems like there has been an increased rate of zombie threads - if you really want to, no one is going to stop you from resurrecting it. But, maybe check the last timestamp in the thread and consider whether a new thread might be more relevant...
