I don’t know, but I too seem to be a bit of a kiss of death, maybe I will change my nick to Black Widow. ---

DAMMIT, Poysyn!! You ruined the joke. Here I was, sitting and hoping that NOBODY replied to this thread - it would have been a hoot! But noooooo… someone had to ruin it for all of us… shame on you! . . . . . (:D) ---

Thread killer? If you keep posting back innane replies of course no one will respond to you. (Just Kidding!) If you post near the end of the thread where it starts dwindling or you answer something so perfectly that anything else is just pointless you will kill threads. Leave things up for argument. If you don’t want to kill threads go to the Great Debates and start doing Jesus/Creationist threads. Those threads never die. HUGS! Sqrl ---

i cannot see how the last poster can kill the thread. People do not respond only to the last post but to everything since they last posted. Maybe people who consistently post the last are posting to threads that were already dead. What does that make them? What are they trying to do? resurect the thread?
