How come once a forum thread as apparently closed as it got to full, around the cut off point of approximately 175 posts, can the thread keep going for certain members to continue to post on it and not others like myself?

I think certain people PM certain mods and ask them to open them again for a short period of time OR the extra poster is a covert mod

Some people have figured out if they leave the page open they can still post as to them the thread is still open.

Some rules are made to be broken

(A mod once bet me I couldn't work out how to do it )

Lol no they don't. If you've posted on the thread before you can hit the back button to when that was and post again....no great conspiracy theory here haha

Mods can't re open threads even if someone asked them to. Your theory is way out, the explanation from Evie is right.

Besides it's not just ANY mod you have to grovel to, it's only the single male one who can do it.

It'll be interesting to see if he's brave enough to make his name widely known on this thread....*

* psst, single men, here's your opportunity to MAHOOSIVELY increase the amount of mail you get

I can confirm that once a mod closes it, rather than the computer bot thingy, it stays closed forever.

Even if you're anal enough to try going back to February 2009

Sorry

Again

BTW, you do realise that if you two keep deleting your posts we'll never get this one to 176...
