"threads with 0 replies" feature stinks

Just an observance. I've clicked on threads a few times only to find that there is nothing there... or that it is some outdated doc's deals item or just random northingness.

I guess the main reason for my beef is that they took away the little dots that indicated a thread you had posted in claiming "too much server overhead" but this coincided with the advent of the 0 reply feature.

Does anyone find this feature as valuable as they thought it would be while they were clamoring for it.

Hey Gomer,

I posted about it here

I kinda like the feature but have stopped bothering to try and use it.

Someone with some time on their hands could get their post count up by going through them all and posting one word replies.




Irrelevant remark deleted.

took me a while to figure out it was there too... but once you get used to seeing it you looked for it.

As for boosting post counts... I thought about just answering the questions with a one or two word responce... or typing deal dead to get it off the list.... but what's the point... I bet the well of 0 reply threads runs pretty deep

as for the above mentioned poster... saw the lad ring up over 100 posts in a 24 hour span once.

The dots were great, a genuinely useful feature.
