Dead Threads

[Mottie]

But there's no getting away from the fact that both you and bodd chose thread subjects that would go on and on and on and on....

Can't help that. People will always be eating breakfast, buying stuff, doing stuff and …..dying!

JohnD starts threads and usually makes the first 6/7/8 posts to try to spark an argument.

John the mod, he’s as boring as odds.

I think it’s fairly obvious that the photo, breakfast, obit etc threads aren’t bumped threads.

Thread bumping is when one poster replies again and again in order to bring a thread, that by definition nobody is interested in, back to the forefront.

In some cases threads are bumped repeatedly, 7 posts in a row, with no other poster showing interest. For me this should tell the poster what they need to know.
It's similar to spreading the original post over 5 or 6 posts to give the false impression that the post has traction and replies.

One or two or even 3 may be justified to share "new information", 5,6,7 times.... yawn.

opinions?

Mottie loves a thread bump. He will never let them Die.

I wanted to put a jokey emoticon at the end of my post, but I can't on my phone for some reason....?

Anyway I've edited my origan post. I do enjoy your cooking threads yes. But there's no getting away from the fact that both you and bodd chose thread subjects that would go on and on and on and on....

Yeah but, mine are interesting. You like to enjoy what Mottie is eating for breakfast? "No way Hose A" said the fireman.
