Edit: No need for that I found ut that you feel that me posting in ailing thread is making the results unreliable. To repeat that: A thread is not dead as long as anybody posts in them. GB saved a few threads lately. Sometimes one gets still a new idea. And I certainly don't post enough in old threads to have a sever misrepresentation. MY sheer posting volume is too small for that.
Originally posted by KeggeAnyone who checks the list of threads which are about to be closed is likely to find something he/she feels like making a comment about. If more of us did it these forums would be much more active and interesting, because Page 1 wouldn't then be a solid lump of word games and me-too threads.
I just found out you are tainting the results. Shame on you!
