Well, first of all: Every click counts as a view. So it's not neccessarily that many people viewing the topic (although that probably only applies for postings with many answers). But then again: I don't see a reason in answering many posts. I just answer, if I really have something to contribute. Best regards Jens ID: 702723 ·

Maybe people don't want to post inane replies to every thread, like some of the post count whores here. BTW, it's "they're interested", not "their interested". There, now you've got a reply, and I've managed to use "their", "there" and "they're" in one post and one sentence. ID: 702724 ·
