Do you mean the link to the section where threads with no replies go?

SuePurblyBusinesslike · 16/04/2012 20:15

Some of us do from time to time, to be nice.

BonkeyMollocks · 16/04/2012 20:16

I do when I'm bored or feel extra specially nice :)

WillieWaggledagger · 16/04/2012 20:23

people used to start threads saying 'there are 107 unanswered threads please take a look and see if you can answer'

i haven't seen one for a while though

SharonGless · 16/04/2012 20:24

Ooh a poster called Puzzlerocks used to bump them frequently - wonder if thy are still around

Somethinginthewoodshed · 16/04/2012 20:25

I sometimes do

curiositykitten · 16/04/2012 20:26

Probably a lot more people than usual tonight lol

CrystalMaize · 16/04/2012 20:26

I do. It's a good way to start the ball rolling, even if I don't have anything relevant to offer. Most people want an answer and when there are lots of threads going on, the occasional "bump" can be helpful for the OP.

Clary · 16/04/2012 20:27

Yeah I do it sometimes if I'm bored of my college work if I am feelign helpful Smile

bronze · 16/04/2012 20:29

Puzz always brought them to people's attention. I'll tell her she's missed

I occasionally look through and see of there's anything I can post on

JustHecate · 16/04/2012 20:41

Yes, I do. I hate to think of someone not being answered, so I always take a look and see if there's anything I can help with, or reply to.

Nothing worse than starting a thread and having no bugger post on it.

SharonGless · 16/04/2012 20:44

Please do bronze..she not Mning now?

AMumInScotland · 16/04/2012 20:58

I have a look quite often - but I can usually see why they haven't been answered, as they tend to be quite obscure/specialist questions!

Tiggy! Not nice

Abcinthia · 16/04/2012 21:33

I do maybe once every other day. But a lot of them are really specific questions that I just cannot help with.

I look at them. I don't want people to think no-one's listening! I don't know the answer to many though
