I feel that way too Anthro. And as I am also a fairly new poster here, I have also kind of let it bother me. Then I realized, that if I killed a thread it's probably because my post so effectively dealt with the topic that there was no more to say.
*goes off to start a pirate thread*

Anthro, I used to crave the feeling of importance and appreciation that comes from a thread that grows so fast you wind up saying embarassing things because you didn't get to read all the posts. Then I had that romantic dream about Ian McKellan. It got a lot more mileage than the romantic dream about Viggo Mortensen. Strangely enough.
So here's what you do- watch a popular movie, then eat something pretty starchy, and let the magic happen Posts: 11017 | Registered: Apr 2003

I've decided that I'm going to be the one to kill this thread. No more posting after this post, please. I called dibs.

I used to kill threads... There was one beautiful moment when a thread I made went three pages. I was so proud of my Jack Chick-bashing child. It spawned several more threads as well. In fact, that was around the time I posted my landmark, which also spawned several threads.
I'll call those my golden days. I've already hit my peak at this point. Muwahah. I'll just camp out on Hatrack's front porch with a rifle in my lap from now on, rocking and rocking...

I have searched threads containing posts by me (I was looking for something really important, I swear!) and in every other thread, my post was the last one. So what does that mean?
I guess it means you're in good company.
Now watch this be the last post.

Try resurrecting your buddy's thread that's about to drop off the bottom of the last page. Perhaps she'll do the same for you in future.

Well, anthro - I kill threads on a consistent basis, particularly the ones I start.
Unless they deal with food.
For some odd reason, poeple around here enjoy my cooking.
If they could just convince my son!
(Now - watch the thread REALLY die. Guaranteed. I bared my soul last night and only TWO of youse were strong enough to take it . . . shakes head sadly)

It's like a whole different hatrack over here in the forum section. Anthro definately planed this 2 page wonder.

luthe, I remember that thread. *sighs* Oh, for the days when we were young and innocent and so saddened by the ability to stop intelligent conversation in its tracks.

Eruve, what have you been up to? We posted 2000 on the same day. I'm just always fascinated at the prospect that someone might have found a life outside of Hatrack.

I just have NOT felt like reading or posting on Hatrack lately at all. Like nothing really looks interesting..
Such a switch from when I first joined and read every post of every thread. Now some days go by that I don't even check Hatrack.
And it really hasn't changed. Do some of you long-timers go through this once in awhile -- where you just don't want to do it for awhile, then later it becomes more appealing again?
