Phantom date

My browser / operating system: Windows NT 10.0, Chrome 56.0.2924.87, Flash 25.0 (release 0)
A random date appears in my studio.The studio is The new PkmnQ
Here's the picture:

Now for facts.
There are 2 types of phantom dates.
Pre-made pd's and Post-made pd's.
Pre-made pd's almost always happen. They might happen because of kingof555's theory.
Post-made pd's only sometimes happen. They might happen because of ZLGames' theory, or the same for Pre-made pd's.

Theories:

ZLGames wrote:

I think this might happen when someone views a studio but does not actually comment or do anything on it. I'm not sure, though. I haven't tried testing it out yet.
That's a bad theory, since all of the reports I have did not exist at the phantom date time.

PkmnQ wrote:

I think it's because of irrelevant data that just so happened to leak.
This was my theory, but I decided it was not good, because it's some… CSS, no… Javascript… eh…. I don't know, but code rarely leaks in some HTML thing STUFF. But now I don't really know the reason. Come up with a theory!

kingof555 wrote:

i think that there was already a studio with that studio id, that was deleted on the day of that phantom date.scratch just keeps the date, but deletes the activity.that may sound wrong, but to me, it makes the most sense
Quoting from the extra notes:
@JRR078 had a date of January 11, 2005 while Scratch 2.0 was in 2009.
I have no idea if studios existed before, but if they did, i'll believe it.
Extra notes:
@JRR078 had a date of January 11, 2005 while Scratch 2.0 was in 2009.
@asivi has a double phantom date studio. July 28, 2016 and March 24, 2014.
I recently found a studio which has phantom dates AFTER the studio was made. However, I forgot the URL. Luckily, @lance4dragons reported something like that!
https://scratch.mit.edu/studios/1842813/activity/9/ has no phantom date before the studio was created.
Extra reports:
@lance4dragons at https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/topic/246946/
@pokemongirl1001 at https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/topic/256139/
Edit: Let's see how many people saw this.
“1171” oh, umm… well… that's nice

I get that as well. Look in the oldest page of activity for my studio of all my projects and you can see that I have it as well. My browser / operating system: Windows NT 10.0, Microsoft Internet Explorer 11.0, Flash 25.0 (release 0)

Same here. No clue what's causing it, but I have a phantom date that's just odd: January 11, 2005.
Scratch 2.0 was released in 2009! W… what? Oh, and scratch was released in 2007

I'm pretty sure it happens to everyone, to be honest…
I'm almost certain it was explained on a duplicate topic somewhere… But I can't find it!

The first reported, maybe, but probably not the first time it's happened.

Yeah, there's probably hundreds or thousands or more of unnoticed ones.

Blocky, a young guard block, guards my signature from kumquats. Still trying to teach him how to shoot the kumquat instead of my signature. By the way, all these coloured URLs still work. Cool, huh? (Sorry for the insane bolding, italicising and underlining. :P)
