You find a thread you're interested in and if you have a comment, post it. Then browse and find another thread that interests you.

Or use the refresh button continuously. I do that when FR is moving extremely fast. Eventually I'll come across any thread I might have missed previously.

Now, excuse me while I go check what's being posted while I've been busy posting to your thread.

I've actually seen someone post "wah la".

Latest post topic: Unnngh..

It ain't no Undead Thread (26,850 posts and counting) but it has potential.

Go to My Preferences and set you Pagination to 20 per page.

Also set your browser to use the same window to open threads; it helps if you keep it all in one browser.

P&Y is HILARIOUS!

I suspect it will be in play for quite some time.

You'll get use to it. FR is loads of fun and we do get the pt across. Find a thread with lots of comments then read the comments....usually they can be very entertaining! Just wait till we have something like example: skerry's midnight rally after Bush's RNC speech. Skerry was so drunk...and it ended up being a hilarious thread...boy was that fun and so funny. That's when you really get it here at FR. I've been here over 5 years; had lots of fun along with way. ;o)

There are so many people posting...... by the time you finish thinking and typing, your response will have become irrelevant and the thread itslef will be 10 items down the list.

Posts become irrelevant because there is too much posting?

Then why is there too much post if posting is irrelevant?

If you have something worthwhile to say, like Buckhead did, the whole world will listen.

My biggest contribution is inserting today's vocab word: "kvetching"

You didn't answer the question. If posting is a useless thing (because of high volume), then why do a high volume of posters post?

Yep....stick with it...you'll learn a whole lot...and have lots of fun along the way. You've got to learn to focus...you bet there are lots of threads...find what interest you...or just go through threads and learn from the vast array of freepers!!! I'm still always learning lots. ;o)

And here I thought that was a substantive reply. People like to post because they get their name up their and get to say what they think. Its irrelevant whether people read it. Or is that me being ego centric again? So...confused...
