The nature of the threads that "should" be in the mudcat are purely a personal preference.

None of us can, or should wish to assume, that we are 'right' and that our individual take on what mudcat should be is somehow correct.

You mention that some threads only have a few replies over a few days whereas in the past such threads might have 20 replies within the hour.

There are others who wish that threads didn't have so many replies and yearn for the 'good old days' (whenever they were), when the lack of quantity was (supposedly) replaced by an increased quality.

There are many others, and this is where MIchael fell foul, who are annoyed by the fact that mudcat has become more of a general chatroom, with a small 'clique' of regulars.

Not really for me to say who is right...
