I've just been sent to the main threads page. To be honest it had never occurred to me that this happened, but having posted to another thread after reading this one, I made note. I can't decide if I find it annoying or not because I am not a "prolific poster". I think I would want to return to the updated thread if I was indulging in a fairly rapid exchange of ideas. But as Jon previously stated you can tell by the number of postings if anyone else is active on that particular thread.mouldy
