They move towards oblivion much more quickly because of all the trivia that is posted. Some people seem to be obsessed with seeing how many threads they can start in a day. One person got 7 threads going, one day last week with the most banal of subjects. The number of replies they get is indicative of the interest they raise.

Can't find thread number nor "view my threads only". Why?

They are around until 1) they are removed by Admin for some reason 2) they sink without trace If you note the thread number - in this case 1049316 (see the address bar) - you should be able to call it up again. You may be able to find it by selecting "View your threads only" at the top of the forum - that will show any thread which you have taken part in.

I had a reply to one of my threads which is no longer on the board. In fact was only on for a short period.
