Red- 02 35th LE Camaro SS
I am dying to know this...
Alright, been on this site over a year now and have been brought up to speed on most things that happen around here. However, I keep seeing something that I really have no idea what it's for so I thought I would ask b/c it's bothering me not knowing
What is the purpose of the "fall thread markers" and other markers where moderators go in and just post smilies to one another and then close the thread down?
Thanks!

It's their way of flirting with each other.

It's so they can see where they've checked the threads up to.
Any new replies in threads bumped above that locked thread, and they know they'll need to look in again.
That's what I heard.

2002 Z28 A4 NBM- Sadly now demodded :(
I'd guess it gives them a point to where they can archive stuff.

I used to be a moderator on here. They're used as a way for mods to check in on threads and know the last time one of them has been on there looking around.

Suggestion: If you are particularly irritated by another member's posting habits and are constantly fighting the urge to flame them, you can click on that person's profile, and select "Add to ignore list." This will make that person's posts invisible to you.
