to think that marking your place on a sensitive thread with a . is crass and insensitive?

There is a watch thread function, if you want to lurk.

Of if you must, at least add a phrase of support or something for the OP.

I don't know what thread you're talking about but it's fucking rude. I'm the first to admit I'm nosy, I love a good POAS thread, or that one recently where op got engaged, but on a delicate topic rubbernecking is seriously crass.

Oh, and I agree with Mardy :o
