Now I know I'm not crazy. For the last week, I've been quietly noticing older threads not only getting marked as unread, but moving to the top of the que when they haven't been posted in. I don't get it. A thread I hadn't posted in for a day moved to the top earlier saying I had posted in it, and just now the volcano thread moved up. Srgalahad made the last post a while ago and there have been numerous threads more recently active.

When in the Newshawks view, it shows the last post as only a few minutes ago. When in the thread, you can clearly see Srgalahad's post was made at 6 something PM.
 
I noticed it too. I think it's because of the poll. When someone votes it's treated like a new post but because there isn't a new post it shows up the last one with the time they voted.
 
I have recently noticed exactly the same as you describe, in the photography forum. Funny...I wonder if there's anything that may be done ? It's not exactly annoying, but it's confusing from time to time.
 
Yup, if a poll thread gets another vote it will get bumped ot the top of the queue just as if it got another reply posted in it.
Basically, a poll vote is forum activity just like a reply is so that's how they get treated.
 
I'm too happy about the comeback of the "Select this post for quoting" button than to be annoyed by the "Bump thread by voting" feature. :d
