kudos is similar to a like button.

I use it to say thanks or to let others know I have read their post. Or if someone posts something really good they get the thumbs up.

Solution is available to the OP, it means if there is a long thread a reader can go to the first post and click go to solution rather than having to read the whole thread.

Don't know where everyone went but it's a lot quieter than before.

You press up. I figured out how to get back to the first page of threads.

Elsewhere or nowhere

what are kudos?

If you agree, like or just want to acknowledge that you've read the post
what is the solution?

If you think that post is the answer to you problem them accept it as the solution
where did everyone go?

Banished probably

do people still lurk here?

Yep lotsa lurkers methinks
how do you get back to the page showing all the threads?

Down the bottom of the thread 'message listing' or just hit the back arrow
did I just see a tumbleweed?

where did everyone go?

Not everyone went

Some stayed, changed dresses.

Some stayed and just lurk

Over moderation is the answer as to why no-one's here

Yes a tumbleweed but maybe not quite a ghost town after all. Thanks. Things can only get better.

Haven't seen a mod post in yonks..

Have they lightened up?

They're around.

Usually find them on a political thread - if you can find one

I don't know how it works anymore. I used to know. So many warnings and then suspended. So many suspensions and then suspended for years. You would see the mods around from time to time. The board has never looked more different than it does now.

Don't know that they count warnings anymore.

Posts are edited and nothing is said - unless it's really bad - then bye bye forever

I'm being very careful. Forever is a long time...

I've been looking around. I read the Pauline Hanson thread. How many of you can say that? I found a message at the top of the page that said notifications. People gave me kudos! I'm used to getting slaps from other members. Brave new world. 😉

Exactly, Kevin Rudd.

Another thing I wonder about. Where is pepe? Does she still post here?

I wonder why ebay even keeps this board going. It seems pointless to pay people to moderate a board that noone ever visits.
