....for each topic so that if a poster only has a couple of responses or none then they could bump up the posts for them?

It may already exist so tell me to shut up if so.

I have no shame and will bump up my threads if no-one has seen them (or if they are not interested ) but if you are new you may not have as much front and could be a bit put out or hurt.

May put an end to the conspiracy of cliques or unfriendly accusations that are constantly milling as well.

Great idea.

So, are you volunteering then because I have 1 thread in Other Subjects and 1 in Book Club if you could kindly go do the honours

How often bump? And what if the original poster is satisfied with the responses and doesn't need the bumping?

Not that I disagree, just being a devil's advocate.

I do this sometimes already.

Is there a stair monitor vacancy?

SG - done!

PC - bloody nitpicker . I would go on what I would be happy with in terms of responses, if they only had 2 or so then I would bump it. Someone put the other day that no-one had commented on the pic of her son and it really struck a cord, so when I am not busy at work (like never), I seek them out now.

See - excellent scheme. Thread nanny bumps my thread and I got an immediate response. I like this idea

Dilly - you are duly elected, just make them walk on the left.

Happy to help out - so what do you reckon, any threads we see or choose certain Topics to each keep watch over?

oliveoil · 08/06/2005 13:53

Mayby just keep an eye peeled. I go down to the bottom of Active first and then click on a couple of Topics willy nilly. A better system would be to have a topic each. But there is no way I am organising that .

That's me, throw in a suggestion and RUN AWAYYYYYYY.
