Willie-O, In case you can't read it, the original post by Allan C was:

So you cleverly (you think) worded your finest thoughts on the subject of the thread and after a final glance, you pushed the "Submit" button. And then you watch to see if your addition to the discussion promotes further comments. And you watch. And you watch. And the thread meanders ever closer to the bottom of the forum page. Then it sinks into oblivion. Was it something you did? Was it something about the way you worded your last posting? What happened?

...Does this scene seem familiar to anyone else?

After a while, it got a little bit silly with several people deciding that they were going to have the last word and therefore be the one who killed the thread (at least that's my interpretation).

I guess that a part 2 would have spoilt the fun and probably would have killed it off long before 400+ posts had been made.
