How to Kill a Thread
Discussion
I have an amazing knack of killing any thread that I contribute to stone dead on this site for some reason.
Today I am logged in under another name as I contributed to the valentines day thread and could not be sure that the Mrs would not read my post and therefore guess what I had got her. Anyway it appears that my "gift" has not deserted me.
And yes I do realise that it would be terribly ironic if nobody replied to this thread.

you can quantify this - add up the % of posts which are last in the thread. I'm up in the late 90's - but i always put that down to people not understanding my sophisticated humour. Our distinguished host had an alternative explanation along the lines of "your posts look relevant to the outsider, but they are not"

It's because your replies are unbelievably comprehensive - if you've answered every question posed by the thread, there's not much to add. Stop being so damn helpful!
