Dude...ONE ping per thread is enough...this is like the 3rd or 4th one...
ransomnote pings when there are new Q drops, I believe that is the system now; rather than start new threads with each drop. Without a new ping, people may not know there is a new Q drop and many would like to be alerted.
Much tidier that way, I think 3 threads a week total, instead of constant new threads with each Q drop or set of drops.
She/he is pinging new Q drops to the thread, not the thread itself. Did you not want to know about the new drops?
This
Is where new Q posts appear, and it’ll alert you in the tab incrementally of new posts if you keep a tab open on it.
