Can't say I feel too good about it. Often I will try to coax some replies... that way at the very least someone else can bare the blame.

I've often wondered... well, sometimes wondered... OK, wondered when I read this post...

What does naked blame look like?

Yeah, that worked. But that's an example of a thread that's designed to be closed... not a normal thread that stops in its tracks.

Most of my posts in other places (not here so much) pass without comment, and when they do draw comment, the person who responds will show little understanding of my point but instead argue against something I didn't say. This, combined with the sheer number of threads in which I have been the last poster, leads me to fear that everyone is thinking, "What on earth is he on about now? Bleah, never mind." So I had to choose the next-to-bottom option.

They never do stop - years may go by and you can be sure someone will find it and resurrect it.
