11. Divided the number of posts replied to in the last 24 hours by my...
...total number of posts in the same time period. And assumed that it was a representative sample. 5÷17=.294 (and change).

33. But what about when you had more than one reply to a post?
How did you account for that, wouldn't it really wack your numbers off to leave that out?

7. I feel your pain.
I'm a thread killer myself and rarely post. When I do post, I often don't get much response....

Oh well...I'm not as informed as many of the folks here. So I try to read and learn. :-)

18. NC_Nurse, we need a thread killers' group--sort of a DU outsider society.
