Ok so two posts almost exactly same this morning, one from bernie6969 and one from waterboatman. bernie posted first yet most people chose to post on waterboatmans and then they get a sticky. Why?

Habit? WB has been doing the Good Morning thread for longer (I think). It makes sense to 'sticky' the thread that is getting the most replies I guess.
Question Author
it is now but before was just above bernies, poor bernie :-(
WBM got his sticky by proferring sexual favours to The Ed.
Question Author
but why more replies on that when bernie only got 1
Possibly also because bernie said goodbye in his first post.
I went by 'latest posts'
I was just going to post on Bernie's thread, but Bernie posted, and then went to work.
Question Author
so did waterboatman but people are still posting
Aaah ... you're right, 4get.

So bang goes that theory !

=0/
but the subject had changed on waterboatmans!

4get, last night you were going for the Nobel Peace Prize.. calm down ;o)
Waterboatman's thread is well established and consistent.

I am NOT a good morning sort of bloke, but I would always support the established.

sara lastnight I was trying to make people see more important things in life, dont know about you but I hate all the pathetic arguing. Was just a question this morning, and it could be that bernie went as to why people posted on waterboats
Don't get me started with favouritism!
You mean to say it's unusual here?
4get, I was pulling your leg but yes, last night was ugly.

I don't go looking for threads. if it's in the Latest Posts I'd be more likely to answer.
Question Author
same here, I look on body and soul and tv but spot recent posts and think 'that sounds interesting'
in fairness to WBM he started the good morning threads first, most people will choose him over any newer rivals. that is the cut and thrust of business :S
I commented on Bernies thread about 2 weeks ago and told him that he started the posts but did not acknowledge peoples replies.as Wbm always replies to everyone no matter how short a reply. Bernie replied that he left for work early. So really I can't see the point of him starting a thread if he is not going to be around for awhile to reply.
I think I posted on wbm because bernies post was so early, I thought he might have up and left by the time I got on here. No offence to bernie. Sometimes I do post on both when there is two
