Am I alone in checking out Who's Online then clicking on to some of the threads being read? Some look quite interesting, especially some of the old ones which haven't been added to recently. Some of the threads are absolutely ancient. It often is the anonymous guests who read the trheads from way back.

I just read the April 1st thread from The Lounge, did we get them going?

You are not alone there Sue. I get a cuppa and read the older threads. It is quite relaxing.

Yes, I could see that you were concerned.

sue,

I also go through the Who's Online and find older threads to read. You are not alone.

I go to Who's Online quite often. The funny thing is when someone else is checking who's online at the same time, it's as if they're looking right at me! Aarrrggh!

The oldest thread I've stumbled upon from there is from 2000 or 2002.

A lot of older threads are missing, Terry removed them quie a long time ago to make space.

I continually check out who is online. I do it out of curiosity but I also goto the same thread that a person is reading if it looks interesting to me.
A thread I followed someone to the other day was regarding terrorism pre-WTC. Seeing the old names that posted there was like being in a time warp. I was tempted to bump the thread up but for different reasons didn`t.
Lol, like BlurryStar I feel kinda strange when I see someone else checking who is online.
