I haven't done it in years and don't know why anyone would.  Unless they want to get the last word in and don't care that no one reads it but them.

..sometimes I use the search feature to find a specific comment or post from the past.  I wish this would be done by others more often rather than the continuous stream of new threads on the same old topics.  Generally though, once a thread has slipped off page one I don't go looking for it.

But just to read what was added by others. I would never post to it.

I have been busy and did not have a chance to follow the thread below on cash, and while it is not quite off the front page, I did not comment because I figured that at this point not many will read it.

...as a link to a current thread on the same topic. You know how we love to rehash the trash constantly.

if the thread fell off the first page rather quickly and I thought it was interesting... but makes no sense to comment. Even a thread a few threads down doesn't get read or responded to after awhile. So I normally don't bother with that either.

Of course one keeps screwing up and getting sent to the corner to think about what he done. Another one...well let's just ay she implodes a lot.

I could vision them doing such a thing. And I could think of a couple of others that might do something that cray cray!

I will do it to get a reference from a past thread dealing with a current thread topic. Or to look up threads I enjoyed.

Even though it isn't allowed, many of us do it anyway.

On how long I've been away from the site.  Sometimes there are threads I was interested in a week before but didn't come to the site so I wanted to "catch up".  Otherwise, rarely do I go back unless there is something I want to research that I remember reading.

whom I believe is exactly the kind of person to go to page 2 and others to get the last word.  As we all know, he likes to "like" his own posts.

If I am doing some "due diligence" research on a provider or trying to find one.   Also - if I am incredibly bored....

I, myself, have gone back a few boards for an Ad I wanted to find.

I was waiting on a response on something and just haven't had the time to check.

and what they said.

Only if I'm doing research or if I started/replied to a thread and wanted to see if anyone else responded.  I consider anything after page 1 to be ancient history. LOL

I just like to watch...

How many posts have people put up there that were never seen on page 1?

You had commented on a post of mine. But I didn't respond cuz it was an old thread so I didn't think you'd see it...

"I like you because you're hot and slutty!"

But not for a particular thread. I just finished reading a book (and had coffee far too late) and was looking for something to  read. So glad I did, as there are definitely some (few) topics that I had missed and found interest in responding.

papa...

Of course that was a joke post and I almost brought it up in this thread.

Try to remember really hard... what year is this year?
