Over the past few months I have noticed an amazing number of "new" people introducing themselves that have accounts that are 2 years old or so. I wouldn't think anything of it if it were just an occasional thing. But it has be a lot. Seems odd to me, almost as if someone just created a whole bunch of accounts a couple years ago and is now bringing them all to life for whatever reason.

You guys think there is anything to this or am I overthinking it? I'm just curious what others think.

*** This, 100%. *** Casual user for almost two years and level 7+ suggested a software web service without knowing development for the tool was out of Israel and got pushed to level 0, assigned my cool new flair. I needed to reintroduce myself, can't participate in polls, search, or see users details any longer.

Look at the details of my account - I have hundreds of posts and comments, I bet the others your seeing are similar.

Getting pushed back is a huge demotivator, especially on a site where levels seem to grow using the Fibonacci sequence. Talking to AOU accomplished nothing except me realizing the primary goal of the site was very different than what I thought coming in.
