Can you 'splain me this?
I've been around here for a few years.
I still don't understand what the little flamey thingy indicates at the far left of the subject line.
Color me 'dumb'.

1. It means it's a hot topic
A certain number of replies garners the flames, I suspect.

4. If a thread gets more than (I think) 50 replies...
...the little flamey thing appears to let people know the thread is hot hot hot.

10. Speak for yourself.
That's the real reason no one responds to my threads. They know it'll cost a fortune in limos and groupies.

8. I think once a thread reaches 50 replies
it starts to flame.
