I am SO bummed! I just looked at my posts and noticed a disturbing trend!

[WillParkinson]

I viewed my posts for the last 24 hours and found that in 90% of the posts where I added messages....

MINE was the LAST message. I've killed so many threads in the last 24 hours.

If yours was one of them I am so sorry!

[Pale Blue Dot]

1. That's happening to me a lot, too

In fact, now that I've posted, you can probably kiss this thread goodbye.

[Tripper11]

2. Happens to me all the time....

and I usually reply with something I hope will continue the discourse. Then..thud! Gone.

[Kamika]

3. I think alot of ppl feel like that

Happened to me aswell on several occasions

[Whitacre D_WI]

4. Murderer!

MURDERER!

[Cannikin]

5. I've noticed the same thing!

I thought it was just me! I can kill a thread.

[YellowRubberDuckie]

6. Me too...you're not alone.

I'm the kiss of death. Watch, this thread is going to die ...well...right now...

[Aristus]

7. Man, when it comes to threads, I'm the Angel of Death.

I hate that. Maybe nobody wants to talk to me, I don't know.

[SoCalDem]

8. No it's MEEEEEEE.. and I even started a LONG one last night

and NO ONE even saw it..:(

[Pale Blue Dot]

9. Hey! If everyone here joins forces

we can keep this thread kicked eternally! Remember, there's strength in numbers!

[Exultant Democracy]

10. Russian roulette

who is going to kill this thread?

[Aristus]

12. Not you, Leviathan,

and I'll kick for SoCalDem, too. We go back a ways. :-)

[SoCalDem]

14. Thanks Aristus.. wanna weigh in on my "dead thread"..??

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=104&topic_id=1040502

It should at least have one person read it and say.. "Yer fullashit" before it goes to the dead thread boneyard:(

[Aristus]

16. I kicked it.

Not just a kick, but a thought-out, reasoned reply. That's cuz I love you. ;-) B-)

[xxqqqzme]

46. the picture cracks me up

the caption is great.

[The Backlash Cometh]

22. Me.

I have a 20% response rate.

[XNASA]

11. You and me both. I'm the ax murderer of threads.

If I wasn't so adept at hijacking threads, I'd kill every last one of them.

[LincolnMcGrath]

13. You too, huh?

:wow: :wow:

[SheilaT]

15. I'm usually a thread killer

and it's really depressing when I've posted a question and the thread dies.

[waterman]

17. Well I'm very new here and it seems that it has to do with how long

the thread stays on the front page. People don't seem to dig back very far from the current ones or the kicked ones up front. Could be totally wrong though.

[flama]

47. Welcome to DU, waterman!

The Lounge is a fun place to hang out (most of the time). Wish I had more lounging time. Used to click myself back a dozen pages, but now I seem to search for specific members and messages.

[NoPasaran]

18. This thread is as good as dead

Now that I've had my say

[arwalden]

19. This Merely Means That You Were...

1) Late

Or....

2) Skilled at a carefully word-smithing a summation that was so complete other members felt that there was nothing left to say and that any further comments would be superfluously gilding the lily.

-- Allen

Edit: Or... it could mean that you're a thread-killer.

[waterman]

21. That was pretty funny...

[snippy]

20. Perhaps you made the definitive post.

After you have spoken there is nothing else to say.

[myrna minx]

23. My posts are cement shoes on any thread. n/t

:hi:

[dweller]

24. did you really want to be

the thread killer, snippy?

oops...sorry.

[FunBobbyMucha]

26. Ever see the ep of "Friends" where they're tossing a ball?

And they decide to see how long they can keep it up? Let's do this here! Let's keep this sucker alive through Friday! Who's with me?!

THUD. End of thread.

"Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? NO! And it's not over now! Who's with me? Niedermeyer?"
"DEAD!"
"Wormer?"
"DEAD!"
"Karl Rove?..."

[Rowdyboy]

25. I once killed three in a row...

one after the other, in the old GD! In my career, the number must now be in the hundreds!

[dweller]

27. anyone can kill a post

48. Thread Killers of the world, unite!

It's good to see so many people who have served as the final chapter of so many posts. I thought it was just me. ;-)

This thread can die now. I've added to it. Or maybe not.

"I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attacks ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I
watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate. All those moments will be lost
in time, like tears in rain...

Time to die."
