How do you determine if a thread was killed or died of natural causes?
The last poster is the killer, that is natural. 🙂

Postmortem autopsy? 😀

Anyway, this title is dubiously worn with pride. Though, occasionally an incidental victory is celebrated as a first.

But striving and crowing to be perennial thread-killing champ exposes a lonely existence.

Some on here may very well to "stranded" on a deserted island (by choice or circumstance) but one on which the person, luckily, found a compatible solar charger.

Wolfy........You try to read too much into things all it really means is the poster was the last one posting in that thread. A thread doesn't get over a 100 posts in it if it is boring would it?

Actually the last poster is just that the last poster. The Thread may have just run its course.
