    Noticed lately every time I start a thread there's a few who feel compelled to tell me that I've actually started another thread with various unimaginative comments.
    Now personally I find it more amusing than annoying,but I've noticed it happening to others as well.I wouldn't like anybody to be discouraged by a few.

    Purely as a heads up.Do with it or ignore it as you will.

    I'm one of them and I suppose I should just ignore them but I guess I can't help myself..... I know it's after hours but you've made 19 threads in the last 1 month going by your profile in AH alone with stuff like 'Vampire Bites, do they hurt?', 'How does smell travel?' 'Do people with smaller heads have smaller brains?' or ones just titled 'What?' and 'Hunches' or 'Hats' and usually it's just one short line of text from you.

    I find them bizarre and like I said I could just ignore them but........ WHY YOU DO IT SO OFTEN????!!!!

    Report the posts if you have an issue with them.

    Or refrain from starting threads.

    I read the OP. You said that you found the comments amusing, but obviously still feel that such responses may be problematic to other posters.

    Mods do not get to read every post in every forum. So, if you & others feel that such posts are problematic - it is best to report them so that they are brought to the attention of the mods.

    Well your insulting reply to Canis Lupus and your condescending reply to The Hill Billy doesn't really come across as helpful.

    Thought it was funny,Doubt Mr Lupus is very offended.
    If you want condescending look at Hill Billy's response.

    My only concern is that some people might be put off by the inane comments and back seat modding coming from certain quarters,came here to bring it to the attention of the powers that be.
    If you want to make me out as the bad guy go ahead.

    23 Feedback threads since September 2013 does seem excessive too, in fairness.
