One should only zombie their own thread to post a very useful update or if someone has some really crucial info that has to be posted in that thread and doesn't make sense in a new topic. Beyond that all the info is still there and can be accessed easily (sometimes too easily) and is fine left alone.

I never stated you did, I was stating the original posters in the thread had probably already dealt with it hence the fact the thread hasn't been active since 2016. There would be no real need to post in a long dormant thread that is solved. I think if people haven't ordered holiday gifts at this point they understand a wait is going to be the case. I can see if someone was asking but this thread everyone is long done with it back in 2016 in fact. It was 4/20/2016 @ 2:44 PM to be precise.

There were a handful of posts from members showing their recent order and delivery time. None got flack for posting at the time even though this is a "where's my order" thread. I tried to keep the peace by saying I'd rather not argue back and forth but I guess that's not feasible.
I'm not apologizing for posting but it makes no sense now updating if it hurts ones feelings about zombie threads.
Have a great holiday everyone stay safe.
