	It means you post and no one posts again on that thread afterwards Paula. x

	Paula - if you have posted on a thread and no one else posts after you - then you are deemed to have 'killed the thread'. I have many times!!

Member Since: July 2004 Posts: 3,638 Send Message	Sometimes a thread goes off of page one & dies, because everyone is posting on another & the big threads get brought back up. I do try to look back just in case someone has been ignored thus killing what could have been an interesting thread.
